Urgent action to protect the ocean from trash!
http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/rhode-island-plastic
At the beginning of the year, Rhode Island lawmakers took up consideration of a bill to ban plastic shopping bags statewide. This should be a no-brainer: banning plastic bags would be a huge victory for Narragansett Bay and its wildlife by eliminating a major source of marine trash.
That's why we can’t believe top state lawmakers haven’t yet scheduled this for a vote.
