Rethinking Disposables
Clean Water Action's mission is to protect our environment, health, economic well-being and community quality of life. Clean Water Action organizes strong grassroots groups and coalitions, and campaigns to elect environmental candidates and to solve environmental and community problems including taking action to protect drinking water and clean up polluted waterways including:
- Get health-harming toxics out of everyday products
- Protect our water from dirty energy threats
- drilling and fracking for oil and gas, and power plant pollution
- Build a future of clean water and clean energy
- Keep our clean water laws strong and effective to protect water and health.
Plastic Free Delaware and Clean Water Action share the goal of "ReThinking Disposables", aiming to stop trash before it starts. CWA works with local governments, businesses and institutions, and consumers of single use food packaging to inspire a cultural shift away from the single-use “throwaway” lifestyle. By providing knowledge, guidance, and support, ReThink Disposable inspires change that leads to conserved resources, saved energy, and reduced litter polluting our oceans, lakes, and rivers.
