Please Defend the Moratorium

Please add your name to protect the Moratorium on Trash Incineration --

Subject: It's his call.

It's all up to the Governor now.
 
The Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) is about to let trash companies build new dirty trash incinerators in Massachusetts for the first time in more than 20 years, and only the Governor can stop it.

Listen Up!
 
 

The final decision could happen in the next 60 days, but I expect it to happen in as soon as two weeks. Scarily, waste companies are already poised with plans ready to build new trash incinerators.
Along with our partners, we already sent 11,000 petitions to the Department of Environmental Protection,1 but the buck stops with Governor Patrick. Only the Governor can stand up to the trash lobby to uphold our 20-year moratorium on new trash incinerators.
 

As you may know, in December, MassDEP proposed lifting Massachusetts' 20-year-old moratorium on expanding trash incineration. We have this moratorium for good reason: burning trash releases tons of toxic pollution into our air and is the opposite of reduce, reuse, recycle.2 We need the Governor to turn this around. Send a quick email now.

Thanks for all you do,
