SHUT DOWN GREENIDGE RALLY - July 28, 2:30PM, Geneva Welcome Center

Greenidge is setting a dangerous precedent for ANY polluting corporation that will completely derail New York's Climate Laws. They must SHUT DOWN once and for all. It's time for us to show up.

Waiting to see if @speakercarlheastie.bsky.social will put people over plastic next week or not. Sure hope he does not side with the plastics and chemical industry.

Plastic is made with 16,000 chemicals, more than a quarter of which are known to be toxic to humans. Time to put people's health over plastic and chemical industry profits by passing the Packaging Reduction & Recycling Infrastructure Act A1749 in the NYS Assembly. This critical legislation would ban the use of 17 of the most toxic chemicals in packaging, including lead, mercury, cadmium, PFAS chemicals, phthalates, bisphenols like BPA and BPS, furans, formaldehyde, halogenated flame retardants and more. Urge your NYS Assemblymember to vote YES on A1749 before the legislative session ends on June 17. Call now at: https://bit.ly/people-over-plastic

Microplastics have now been found in the human heart, lungs, brain, testes, placentas, and breastmilk. Babies are being born pre-polluted by plastics. We MUST reduce the huge amount of plastic being produced and put into the marketplace and our bodies.

Fracking=dumb
