How do we stop the plastic pollution crisis? We stop fossil fuels!

[link removed]


More than 90% of plastics made globally come from fossil fuels. Making plastic involves high heat and lots of electricity — both generated using fossil fuels.

We are mobilizing to fight fracking in Pennsylvania!
Our Pennsylvania organizing team has been working hard to mobilize people and educate legislators in order to pass a 2,500-foot setback for oil and gas wells from residences and businesses. While the oil and gas lobbyists are throwing road blocks our way, we refuse to let those in the halls of power off the hook from protecting Pennsylvanians from the fracking industry’s exploitation.
