Friend,
Nothing we use for just a few minutes should pollute our communities for hundreds of years.
But single-use plastic -- from the bags at the grocery store, to the foam containers that hold takeout food, to the packaging that overflows from the boxes we order online -- is almost impossible to avoid. And even when we put plastic in the blue bin, only a tiny fraction of the waste is actually recycled.
That's why PIRG has a plan to cut plastic pollution off at the source. With your support, we're working toward a future where retailers use less plastic in the first place, and plastic producers take responsibility for the waste their products are designed to become.
Support from citizens like you is what keeps our work going strong -- and right now, you can make double the impact to combat plastic waste.
Make your End of Year Drive donation to PIRG before midnight and your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $50,000 nationwide.

When your tub is overflowing, the first part of the solution is to turn off the tap. The plastic pollution crisis can seem overwhelming, but we know the concrete, meaningful steps we can take together to stop the flood of wasteful plastic and build a safer, healthier, more sustainable future.
We're already making progress. Just this year, we helped lead the charge by passing a producer responsibility law in Colorado, and an important truth in recycling law in California.
Your support is vital to keeping this important work going strong in 2023 and beyond.
Don't miss the midnight deadline, Friend. Make your year-end gift today to double your impact.
