Did you know @dunkindonuts STILL won’t accept BYO cups? 😱 They’re notorious for refusing reusable cups. Jill, who leads BYO efforts with Columbia County Reduces in New York, decided to take action!

🌍 Plastic pollution is a silent killer. It harms our health, poisons wildlife, and devastates our planet. Oil mining is fueling this crisis by driving harmful plastic production this must END! We can't let Big Oil profit while our future is at risk. Ban single-use plastics NOW & demand a #PlasticFreeFuture! Stop the destructive cycle. 🛑🌱 #BreakFreeFromPlastic #ReducePlastic #StopEACOP #ActNow 💪

Earthjustice is fighting to get the EPA to ban Paraquat, a pesticide linked to Parkinson’s. Chemical companies are burying the evidence, and the EPA's latest review ignores the risks. The EPA needs to hear from you to ban this deadly chemical. ejus.tc/3IiTznj

😡IRA climate change mitigation funds should NOT be used to fund projects that send plastics to be burned at steel plants, creating GHGs, air pollution, microplastic pollution & fire risks. 📢Urge @ENERGY Sec. Granholm to reject this mistake: bit.ly/doe-burning #toxicplastic #climatefail
