That’s why the Environmental Solutions Coalition is committed to reduce plastic waste and encourage recycling — but without increasing taxes and costs on hard-working Californians. Together, we must protect the planet while building a more equitable tomorrow for working families.
Families and people on fixed incomes have to cope with the highest cost of living in the nation, and it is no surprise that California has the highest adjusted poverty rate among states.
Rather than imposing new taxes that Californians can’t afford, state leaders must focus on real solutions to encourage recycling at the local and state level and work to reduce plastic waste.
