Everyone deserves clean water, safe products, and healthy communities. That’s why advocates from the Alliance for Health and Safe Chemicals are on Capitol Hill urging Congress to protect #TSCA, our nation’s main chemical safety law. @Sen_Alsobrooks

Frederick County has purchased land to expand its #composting capacity & #compost food scraps - a great step forward for #ZeroWaste!

The county is also reminding the public that "the gold standard for handling your food waste is to compost at home."

Right now, the #Baltimore City Council is considering the city's budget for Fiscal Year 2027 - and critical funding for a #compost facility is missing from the Mayor's proposal.

Yesterday, @EPA released a proposed rule rolling back critical wastewater pollution standards for coal-fired power plants.

Let’s be clear: this is a giveaway to the coal industry that will allow more toxic pollution into our waterways.

By increasing the soil’s ability to absorb water, compost supports smarter water use, reduces runoff, & builds more resilient landscapes.

Here in MD, we won grant funding for on-farm composting in #mdga26, & we're working to #FeedTheSoil with #Compost all year round. #ICAW2026

It's International #Compost Awareness Week! #ICAW2026

Compost is created by recycling food scraps & yard waste into a nutrient-rich soil amendment. Instead of sending them to landfills, composting returns valuable nutrients back to the earth. #FeedTheSoil #ReduceWaste

Data centers place an enormous strain on local electricity demand, leading to higher utility bills. Please join the City Council for a hearing on a bill that would place a one-year moratorium on data centers in Baltimore, this Thursday, May 7.
