SAY “NO THANK YOU”
TO PLASTIC BAGS
Every year, billions of plastic bags are used for just minutes but remain in the environment for decades—polluting waterways, harming wildlife, and contributing to growing waste.
By switching to reusable bags, saying no to plastic at checkout, and encouraging others to do the same, we can significantly reduce our impact. Small, everyday choices can lead to lasting change.
The Plastic Reduction Alliance also offers reusable tote bags as a simple way to make the switch—contact us to purchase one and be part of the solution!
REPEAL INDIANA
HOUSE BILL 1053
The Plastic Reduction Alliance urges Indiana communities to support policies that reduce plastic waste. Indiana’s H.B. 1053 (2016) prevents local governments from banning single-use plastics, limiting effective solutions.
Plastic waste is rapidly increasing, with most ending up in landfills and breaking down into microplastics that harm ecosystems and human health. Single-use plastics are a major driver of this crisis.
Below is a statement outlining the urgent need for this policy change. Share this with your elected officials to support repealing H.B. 1053.
COLLECT, ANALYZE,
AND QUANTIFY
Join us for a day of science and service along the Lake Michigan shoreline in Gary. Together, we’ll collect, analyze, and quantify plastic pollution at Marquette Beach while helping restore and care for this vital ecosystem.
This three-year initiative is designed to deepen our understanding of plastic waste and its impacts—while actively stewarding and revitalizing the Marquette Beach pathways for the community.
