About this event
Join Beyond Plastics in Albany to work for passage of two critical bills. Industry lobbyists are fighting hard to defeat the bills and we need your voice! (1) The Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act reduces plastic packaging, bans toxic chemicals, ensures recycling is effective, and makes corporations pay to manage the waste they create. (2) The Bigger Better Bottle Bill expands New York’s existing container deposit program, increases redemption rates, and supports marginalized workers and small businesses.
