Why We Need Your Support!🫶
With the expected tripling of plastic production by the year 2060 and local governments in Maryland facing shortages effecting trash removal services, your support is needed more than ever. Maryland has a unique position when it comes to trash and litter pollution policies and we have the solution. Extended Producer Responsibility for Packaging!
A Journey Just Begun!🌿
Our journey has just begun! We have secured many litter and trash policy victories including: banning expanded polystyrene, banning plastic micro-beads, and passing extended producer responsibility for packaging statewide. With the projected tripling of plastic pollution and the threat of micro-plastics to human health, our work is far more over.
Cheers to Clean Water 2023 - A Day of Impact and Unity 🌊🍻
On International Coastal Cleanup Day, our volunteers turned the tide on litter in Baltimore City, Maryland. The data collected during the cleanup on plastic bags and plastic bottles not only validates previous notions on these common littered items but proves and will help pass policy in the state of Maryland.
