Why it Matters
The program increases plastic recovery (another way of saying it reduces litter), reduces waste overall and gives difficult-to-recycle plastic products a second life. It turns plastics into energy that’s pumped back into home so you can watch TV, charge your phone or eat dinner by something other than candlelight.
Plastic waste is a valuable resource, and we’re missing an opportunity to do more. You can be a part of a positive change. Join the grassroots movement and contact your elected official with the click of a button.
TAKE ACTIONIf you’re looking for ways to keep the positive momentum going, we’re here to support you with resources to help share the good news about plastics.
