Well said, @Rendon63rd! "Convenient does not always equal good. There was a time when Americans thought it was convenient to throw their cans, bottles, cigarettes and other trash out the window while driving down the road. We’re smarter than that now." ocregister.com/2019/03/14/cal…

Current law doesn’t allow reusable food containers at any festivals/pop-ups ➡️ so much single-use trash😢AB619 changes this by allowing vendors to use reusables! Let's enjoy festivals more sustainably. David Chiu Gavin Newsom #AB619 is at the Governor’s desk! Do you support?

Joining cities & counties across California, I agree that #CAMustLead by enacting #AB1080 by @LorenaAD80 & #SB54 by Ben Allen. The longer we go without taking action to reduce single-use packaging pollution, the more it costs the environment & local governments.

Nick Lapis of 11th Hour grantee Californians Against Waste calls the new Senate Bill 1383 a very pivotal point in waste management. "For the first time we are tackling organic waste... just as public awareness and attention to plastic pollution is peaking." #greenawaste timesnewsnetwork.com/news/usa/calif…

Thank you to Californians Against Waste for recognizing me as ‘Legislator of the Year’. It truly is an honor. Working with them and other environmental advocates, we were able to pass the world’s most progressive plastic reduction law.
