Plastic production 🤝 Plastic pollution. We need a #PlasticsTreaty that holds corporate polluters accountable, prioritizes plastic production reduction measures, and promotes reuse and refill systems. Visit bit.ly/ScienceAdvance… for more information #breakfreefromplastic
In a desperate attempt to weaken the #PlasticsTreaty pro-plastic groups put ads across Ottawa🙄 So #breakfreefromplastic members worked together to fix their ads!😉 @anais_pgh @Earthworks @PeopleOverPetro @Gallifrey001 @AzulDotOrg @NoMoreButtsOrg #INC4 @UNEP
Defend Our Health is saddened by the news that LD 2273, a bill that would require farm workers to be paid a minimum wage, was vetoed. Farmworkers deserve to make the same minimum wage as all other Maine employees and are entitled to fair wages under Maine’s labor laws.
Defend Our Health Staff Spotlight 🔦✨ Sarah Woodbury, Defend’s VP of programs and policy, has been with Defend since 2018! With the Maine Statehouse practically acting as her second home 😂 , Sarah works hard to ensure that we turn our advocacy work into legislative progress.

Defend Our Health applauds the @EPA’s designation of PFOA and PFOS as ‘hazardous substances’ under The Federal Superfund law. This is a step in the right direction to hold polluters accountable for the contamination they have caused nationwide. defendourhealth.org/news/defend-ou…
We’re mentioned in @Forbes! Check out the full article about the EPA finalizing a first-ever rule establishing limits on PFAS in our nation’s drinking water → forbes.com/sites/caileygl… #healthjustice #environmentaljustice #environmentalhealth
Tis' the Earth Day season! Earlier this week, the @WhiteHouse published a press release that included excerpts from leaders nationwide on the @EPA’s new drinking water standard for PFAS. We’re proud to be included in celebrating the progress made. whitehouse.gov/ceq/news-updat…
Bravo Maine! Thank you @defendourhealth
Bravo Maine! Thank you @defendourhealth
LD 1537, our PFAS in Products bill, was officially signed into law yesterday! ✅ Mainers across the state deserve to know what toxic chemicals are in their products, and this law gives consumers transparency in making their own choices regarding the products they choose to buy.
Fishing is a major pastime in Maine, but what if we told you that the fish you catch could be contaminated with toxic chemicals like #PFAS? Check out our recent blog post to learn more about PFAS in fish + how this impacts vulnerable communities in Maine! defendourhealthaction.org/pfas-in-freshw…

GAIA's incredible members are on-the-ground at #INC4! We're calling for an ambitious #PlasticsTreaty that: ✅cuts plastic production ✅calls for a #JustTransition & protects #humanrights ✅ends #Wastecolonialism ✅prevents incineration & chemical recycling #BreakFreeFromPlastic

A democratic governor vetoing a bill that would help protect the Penobscot river from PFAS contamination and a bill to provide basic employment protections to farmworkers is shameful. Absolutely shameful. pressherald.com/2024/04/23/gov…
