Thank you Senator Whitehouse✨🇺🇸✨💙✨
Thank you, Sen Whitehouse for your workall the extremely important issues facing our country!
Thank You Senator Whitehouse, other Committee members and panel guests for all you do to keep our environment safe for the people and the planet. 🇺🇸🎉
Thank you Senator Whitehouse for your exceptional work for all Americans. ❤
THANK YOU, Sen Whitehouse!
Absolutely love and admire all of the work and efforts that Senator Whitehouse has done, and continues to do to bring awareness to the different issues regarding pollution caused by the major industries, specifically the fossil fuel industry. Thank you so much Senator Whitehouse for being a strong voice for environmental justice, and keep up the great work.
Strong Global Plastics Treaty Act. Yes Please. Freedom From Plastic Pollution Act
And microplastics in "every placenta tested", we've been poisoning ourselves for decades, at least.
We need to collect a tax on every polluting product like plastics so that companies will be more motivated to find sustainable alternatives.
We need to put a redemption value on all petroleum products packaging.
Many thanks, Senator Whitehouse, and all involved. Recycling has been overflowing with lies for several decades.
Thank you Senator, you’re exactly where we need you to be.
For some reason whenever the word plastics is said, I think of "The Graduate". And that word Mr. McGuire said to Benjamin. Now it's become a scourge of our planet instead of a boon!!
I can rarely find preserved food in glass. Like pickled beets. I am glad to hear this info. Look forward to hearing more. Last year, I made a visit to my 50th US state. Rhode Island. I visited Providence. Natural beauty. Man-made destruction growing everywhere. I eat locally wherever I go. Thanks for your work on Scotus ethics and the environment. I try to do my part. If I’m informed, I do better. Thanks, Senator WH , for your dedication.
We've totally stopped recycling plastic here in Southern California. WHY??????????????????
I believe Newsom has stopped many hazardous materials from entering Ca, which all other states should follow. There must be a reason why recycling plastic has stopped in Ca, if that’s in fact true. Gov Newsom has the right idea to keep his state safe from many toxic materials from entering his state though, which I congratulate him on.
Because of Fraud n Greed...people b damned...like blanketz...w/smallpox given 4 genocide of American Indianz...History repeated itself ur n da Wayz...!!!😮😮
Whitehouse is the BEST!!!
I remember the TV commercial when I was a child, "Better Living Through Chemistry." Part of that "better living" evil was plastic.
Thank you Senator Whitehouse stay AWESOME sir 🙏
Close the loop. Companies producing products of heavy plastics usage must then also not only be the origin of use but also the recipient of plastic product at life's end. Create the problem + fix the problem. Not work in a vacuum. Pretty much my view when any corporations behave in one sided procedures for profit with risks to the society/environment.
Big Plastic is wrecking the planet.
I'd vote Whitehouse for President any day.
why on Earth are the companies responsible for microplastics getting off with a slap on the wrist? They make billions of dollars off of their inventions and too often those untested inventions destroy. I question who has to make the sacrifice for innovation when it's *never* the wealthy owners and *always* the vulnerable and innocent.
Senator Whitehouse: When is there going to be an Investigative Hearting on Clarence Thomas?!? This is overdue and the people are waiting!!!

U will b my write in 4 prez...please go there...!!!😮😮😮 no mo genjoe...!!!😮😮😮
wow everyone is such an excellent transparent communicator like astronauts
what good does any of this do when congress won't protect us from corporations that polute and kll us
FUCJ PKASTIC AND WE NEED TO BOYCOTTBOYCOTTING
Plastics are safe just ask Exxon Mobile.
They'll try to convince a person they are actually beneficial.
Let's just get rid of the EPA and all regulations and vote republican. We're in so many messes with regulations and corporate America can't afford to be concerned about our health. I've been feed up for over 50 years, we need to enforce the laws we have and sue for the cleanup
