We have a #waste problem that impacts our #health, #air, #water, and #community.
-#Boston #incinerates our #trash and labels it "waste to energy"
-Incinerators produce a small amount of electricity, that electricity per unit is dirtier than coal

[Plastic Pollutes @PlasticPollutes]

We cannot recycle our way out of the plastic pollution crisis. The EPA must do better. We must stop plastic pollution at its source and use sustainable alternatives that don’t harm our health or planet. https://t.co/3kY3C5A2GD

Don’t just read this yourself - share it with your legislators, any journalists you know, or any business owners/institutions that might be inspired to stop purchasing plastic, disposable crap. @CLF

[Beyond Plastics @PlasticsBeyond]

Fantastic new piece by @Reuters exposes the failures, false claims & pitfalls (including toxic emissions + major #GHG that speed #climatechange ) of "advanced" or "chemical recycling" a.k.a. pyrolysis, waste-to-fuel, waste-to-energy & gasification. @enckj https://t.co/ZmIqJBFW2x

[#BreakFreeFromPlastic @brkfreeplastic]

6 billion disposable coffee cups get used every year. We can put a stop this unsustainable habit. In Asia Pacific, local businesses like Idealcup, Muuse and Cupkita are three of companies that are making it easier for us to say NO to disposable coffee cups. #BreakFreeFromPlastic

[Kirstie Pecci @KirstiePecci]

Here in New England we have @usefull_us to help us say “NO” to single use, often plastic or plastic lined cups and bowls. @CLF @upstream_org

[USEFULL @usefull_us]

For a "zero waste" future, colleges should replace plastic disposables with sustainable reusables like @usefull_us products.

Check out our CIO, Derek Neilson's blog post explaining the keys to implementing a reusables program.

[USEFULL @usefull_us]

We need to face the truth of reusables. Plastics will never be the solution for to-go consumption.

Check out this blog post by our CEO and founder, Alison Rogers, that explains why @usefull has a solution:

At #USEFULL, we're solving a #plastic #problem, which is the very reason we're avoiding plastic #packaging.

"Solving a plastic problem with thicker, more durable plastic is not the solution. Plastic will never be #green."
