Are you tired of seeing expanded polystyrene (aka Styrofoam) all over your beaches? Have you heard of the 1.25 trillion pieces of plastic pollution in our oceans? Write to the Long Beach City Council to ask them to enact an ordinance banning single use disposable foam from our restaurants and stores in Long Beach. If you know which district you live in, e-mail your councilperson directly. Send your support letter to all council members by going to this Action Alert Page!
There will be a motion to write an ordinance at the City Council Meeting on December 20, Tuesday, 5pm (Agenda).
