On March 12, 2025, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced more than 30 actions rolling back rules designed to protect all of us from harmful chemicals and pollution, which the agency celebrated as “the biggest deregulatory action in U.S. history.” We’re speaking out with our partners at Break Free From Plastic and calling on the EPA to do what it was established to do: put people and the planet over industry profits.

Less than 6% of your plastic waste is recycled. In New York, we have a chance to change that.

Here is the link to a recording of the news conference: https://lnkd.in/gY6PT8b2 #peopleoverplastic?#planetoverplastic?#plasticsandclimate
