"Growing up was pretty awesome until I learned that my life was literally being poisoned in every sense, at church, at home, at school. I didn't realize that the petrochemical harms were really affecting my everyday life. Now I have asthma. I have eczema. I have long lasting health diseases." - Martec Washington #MomsPlasticsSummit
"There is no safe way to get rid of plastic. Plastics recycling does not work. It generates extremely high levels of microplastics." #MomsPlasticsSummit

This summer, Congress ripped away Biden-era clean energy funding that promised to move the nation closer than ever to climate stability. But consumers can still take advantage of some of this funding; many tax credits and rebates are in effect until December 31.
