Climate Change, Green Energy & Jobs in RI
We're working to tackle the climate crisis in RI by improving energy efficiency, creating resilient communities, prioritizing climate justice, and creating good jobs to establish a just transition to a green economy.
Green Infrastructure in Rhode Island
Rhode Island’s coastal communities are vulnerable to rising seas. We're partnering with cities and towns throughout Rhode Island to make sure they are prepared for the impacts of climate change.
Protecting Rhode Island's Drinking Water from Toxic Threats
Clean Water Action is working to protect our health from exposure to toxic substances in the water we drink, the food we eat, the products we use, and in our homes and schools.
ReThink Disposable in Rhode Island
Clean Water’s award-winning ReThink Disposable program is expanding to Rhode Island! ReThink Disposable works with local jurisdictions, businesses, and consumers of take-out food packaging (almost everyone these days) to inspire a cultural shift away from the single-use disposable items.
Zero Waste in RI
Single-use plastics are polluting our environment, littering our waterways, and piling up nationwide. The Rhode Island Resource Recovery Corporation (RIRRC) estimates that the landfill in Rhode Island will reach capacity by 2040. To extend its lifespan and protect our environment, we have to reduce the volume of waste that we create.
