Time Range For Action Alert: 
October 21, 2020 to October 21, 2021

TELL YOUR STATE LEGISLATORS: VOTE YES

ON AB 1080 AND SB 54

(Allen and Gonzalez) The California Circular Economy and Plastic Pollution Reduction Acts

Every day, single-use plastic packaging generates thousands of tons of waste that are wreaking long lasting damage on our health and natural environment. We can no longer afford to wait. Act now and demand that your legislators combat the plastic waste crisis. SB 54 and AB 1080 would alleviate the scourge of plastic by:

  • Ensuring that all single-use plastic packaging will be reusable, recyclable, or compostable after 2032. 
  • Mandating that the most-littered plastic products, such as food and beverage containers, be made only from reusable, recyclable, or compostable materials.
  • Creating incentives to encourage in-state manufacturing using recycled material.
