It’s estimated that each year, Amazon uses enough plastic pillow packaging to encircle the planet 500 times. And that’s just one type of single-use plastic from one company. It’s time to move #BeyondPlastic.

[NJPIRG @NJPIRG]

By one report, Amazon was responsible for 465 million pounds of plastic waste in 2019 alone. Join us in telling Amazon to move beyond plastic and eliminate unnecessary single-use plastic packaging. #BeyondPlastic

A big thank you to Senators @D17Senator and @KipBateman , and Assemblymen @DeAngeloLD14, @herbconaway and @AndrewZwicker for championing this legislation and supporting these important standards!

Today the Appliance Efficiency Standards Bill was passed in both the Assembly and the Senate! This bill is a win-win for New Jersey consumers, helping to reduce monthly utility bill costs for customers and lower harmful air pollution.

#ClimateChange is increasing the frequency and severity of wildfires with hotter, drier conditions. Wildfire smoke is particularly harmful for human health, and will only get worse unless we act to cut pollution that dirties our air and warms our climate.
