Bringing Sustainability to Freight & Salvage
When the ReThink Disposable California team approached the historic Freight & Salvage music venue to discuss moving away from single-use disposables, we knew we were going to ask them to make a new kind of history.
ReThink Disposable Collaborates with Schools to Bring Reuse to our Youth
K-12 students spend half their year in school, with up to 60% of students choosing school-provided lunch options. Pre-K and daycare kids are in these educational settings year-round. Unfortunately, many schools serve meals on disposable cafeteria foodware such as polystyrene foam trays and plastic utensils.
Why Plastic Free July?
Each year we collaborate with our reuse partners to highlight our work reducing single use plastic foodware from our waste streams. Why? Well, we know that 50% of all plastic ever produced has been manufactured since 2000. We also know that plastic contains forever chemicals that are known to cause health problems in humans.
This July, let’s make America the Land of the Plastic-Free!
This Plastic Free July, take stock of your consumer habits, strive to reduce your plastic consumption, spread the word, take action in your community, and speak out to your local government. Let's demand an end to the reign of “disposable” plastics and build a sustainable, reusable future!
My Testimony to EPA about its Toxic Water Proposal
On Thursday, December 19th I participated in a "virtual" public hearing on the Trump administration's dangerous plan to let dirty power plants dump even more pollution into our rivers, putting more communities at risk. These rollbacks will impact communities across the country. Despite this, EPA decided not to host an in-person hearing on this issue, deciding instead to host the virtual hearing in the middle of the holiday season. This is not the type of meaningful engagement that communities deserve.
Below is what I told EPA. Please read it and then send a message to EPA!
