This Earth Day, help PIRG put our planet over plastic We're doubling down on our campaigns to move Georgia beyond plastic, and to hold plastic producers accountable for the pollution their products become.

Our country and our planet have a plastic waste problem. PIRG is working to fix that, but we can't do it without your help.

Make your year-end gift now to help keep our work going strong in the year ahead.

Fuel our work to move Georgia beyond plastic The United States is the world's largest plastic polluter: Every year, we produce a staggering 42 million metric tons of plastic waste. PIRG is working to fix that -- and we need your help.

Each year, a whopping 70 million pounds of waste gets left behind in our country’s parks for the National Park Service to manage, and single-use plastics are a big part of that problem.

This week is both Earth Day and National Parks Week. So we’re calling on U.S. senators to take action and ban single-use plastics in national parks. Add your name today.

Tell your U.S. senators: Support a ban on single-use plastic products in our national parks What could ruin a stroll through one of our country's beautiful national parks? How about the sight of single-use plastic litter?
