Move our country toward a zero waste future

Manufacturing new plastic products takes an enormous toll on our environment -- and too often, they're the wasteful, single-use plastic items that we don't even need.

A new bill to penalize manufacturers for using virgin plastic would help address this problem, and it was just introduced into the U.S. Senate. It's a first step toward a nationwide move beyond plastic -- and one our leaders can and must take while also supporting efforts to address plastic pollution directly.

Tell your senators to vote yes on the REDUCE Act -- and to take the next step by supporting policies that go even further in reducing our reliance on plastic.
