Join Beyond Plastics' science Director, @vtrishav, @AgentschangeEJ of @ColumbiaMSPH, and Ryan Babadi of @ToxFreeFuture on Nov. 12 for a free webinar about the toxic chemicals in plastics and how you can help protect yourself and your community from them. https://t.co/wyyAbkS9il

A fantastic piece by @SierraClub on our founder Courtney Williams and her fight to move to #zerowaste and protect people from polluters! https://t.co/N3YOKOGnS8

In Albany to put #PeopleOverPlastic with Assemblymember Glick and @PlasticsBeyond

Put #PeekskillOverPlastic and pass the PRRIA AND BBBB! PRRIA= Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act BBBB=Bigger Better Bottle Bill Both would dramatically cut down on the plastics that pollute the planet and harm our health. #PeopleOverPlastic @PlasticsBeyond

Rising salinity in the East of Hudson Watershed threatens the fragile drinking water resources for millions of NYers, including many in Putnam and N. Westchester. Today, I joined concerned officials in raising awareness of this issue.

We have been selected by WE ACT for Environmental Justice @weact4ej as a Community Voices regional convener in their TCTAC program! Those interested in providing input or learning more about the TCTAC effort in Westchester can request more info at https://t.co/lnQh7KUiP1

Great to see this program is expanding, and it's very interesting to note there are penalties for apartment buildings that do not provide composting services for their residents (we hope the penalties are large enough to be a deterrent) https://t.co/0EAZXA7oWl via @gothamist

240+ orgs are joining together to demand @GovKathyHochul help New York households accelerate the transition to clean energy technology, which would improve air quality, lower bills, and reduce climate pollution. Read more: https://t.co/jhV0K4rAq1 #RenewableHeatNow #NYHEAT

This is a shortsighted plan that will increase the use of incinerators for trash disposal, cementing pollution in our trash disposal plan. @GovKathyHochul reject these requests! #wastetoenergy https://t.co/ngQovbJYk8 via @thesuffolktimes

Bravo to @MarionCo_OR for turning away from burning trash! We hope @westchestergov can follow suit! https://t.co/dvceLx3SlO via @WasteDive

The Department of Environmental Facilities will be hosting another Compost Giveback event Sunday, October 6 from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. at Croton Point Park. To register for the event and purchase a compost bin/rain barrel, visit https://t.co/l1wYaOSIIw

.@BrianLehrer q for Latimer- in Congress what will he do about expired Title V Air permits the EPA is allowing the NYSDEC to leave expired? Like Westchester County's trash incinerator in Peekskill that expired in 2021. Pollution is harming health of Westchester county residents

From @NYCMayor to Comptroller, everyone concerned about affordability wants #NYHEAT. But @CarlHeastie couldn't care less about affordability; he's more interested in protecting a handful of WNY @NYSA_Majority members from National Fuel Gas' wrath.

Listen to WASS founder Courtney Williams on The @BrianLehrer Show! Tell Albany to support the #NYHEAT Act, the Plastic Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act, and the Bigger Better Bottle Bill! @NYSenDemLeader @CarlHeastie

WASS sent a memo of support this week for the #NYHEAT Act to the @NYSA_Majority and @GovKathyHochul. The NY HEAT Act means cleaner heat and lower bills and a brighter future. NY HEAT must pass this session!

Packaging Reduction Act and Bigger Better Bottle Bill are in the final week of legislative session mix, according to @Gothamist We urge @carlheastie and @andreascousins to pass both!

Let's cut packaging by 50% in New York and set a precedent for other states to follow. We're calling on the New York state legislature to be on the right side of history. Read the full @nytimes @HilaryNYC story: https://t.co/641C0QR8H6
