Navigating California’s Plastic Bag Ban: What You Need to Know

PaintCare has proven to be a successful producer responsibility program for California's excess paint.

I'm thrilled that the Legislature has recognized this by passing my #SB1143 to further its operations. Another big win for our environment, consumers, and local governments.

[Senator Ben Allen @BenAllenCA]

Extended producer responsibility – ensuring producers, not taxpayers, pay the cost to manage their products at the end-of-life – has long been a focus of my work. Today, the Senate passed #SB1143, which would apply EPR to costly and difficult-to-handle household hazardous waste.

@BenAllenCA Thank you @BenAllenCA for your leadership in protecting the environment and making the lives of Californians a little bit easier.

Like wine 🍷? You can now get 💲#CRV for turning in your wine bottles. As California’s largest single-site user of recycled glass, Gallo Glass buys over 20% of the state’s recycled glass, diverting nearly 175,000 tons from landfills yearly. They produce 2.7M bottles a day with a goal of 800 bottles/year. Each Gallo Glass bottle contains up to 75% recycled glass, with all major raw materials sourced within California, from sand and soda ash to limestone and cullet. ♻️ #winebottle @GalloFamily @CalPSC @NSACTION_US #CFEE @ResCoalitionCA @KhaimMorton

Colombo Vaccarezza started as a trash collector in Oakland, later moving to Lodi where he began collecting food waste for pigs in 1927. Today, the Vaccarezza family still own @CalWaste in Galt, CA employing over 200 locals, using a modern fleet of energy-efficient trucks servicing 300-400K homes and 2K commercial businesses in the Sacramento region. Their Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) serves as a regional center processing 80K tons of single-stream recyclables from 10 counties, sorting them into 14 commodities. The bad news is that their blue bin material still has 25% non recyclable material so we need more consumer #education & #Awareness ♻️ @TinaMcKinnor1 @JoshHooverCA @ResCoalitionCA @NSACTION_US #CFEE @WasteManagement @CalPSC @WasteConnection @CaRetailers

Carpet Can Be Recycled!
If taken to the right place, carpet can be recycled in a variety of useful new products. The CARE California Drop-off Site map can help you find a place to take your old carpet to be recycled. Click here for a location near you! https://t.co/PF2cdOIl6g ♻️ #carpet @CalPSC @NSACTION_US

[NSACTION @NSACTION_US]

@Carpet8882424 @AsmAguiarCurry @BillDoddCA We disagree - the funds were always intended to go to train the installers on proper installation and tear out and transport to recycling centers so we can maximize collection of recyclable carpet but that never happened under @CarpetRecycle program. #carpet @PaintersUnion

Yesterday, NSAC-sponsored AB 863 by @AsmAguiarCurry & Senator @BillDoddCA passed out of the Senate Environmental Quality Committee w/ a 5-1 vote. It will be heard next in the Senate Appropriations Committee. Show your support today: https://t.co/Lzs3fx2kmB #YesonAB863

With its patented process, “urban miners” New West Gypsum Recycling separates the gypsum core from the paper backing. Gypsum is 100% recyclable and used for new drywall. The paper can be used in animal bedding, card stock, base fertilizer and even mushroom production. They also make briquettes for light weight concrete processes. ♻️ #CFEE #gypsum @NSACTION_US

@DeirdreMASSPIRG @SenSusanMoran @NeumannJo @ASAPstandards @GEConsumers We hope Massachusetts will pass this common sense measure to stop selling mercury in glass for lighting products that are 50% less efficient than LEDs!
