GET PAST PLASTICS IN HOMEWOOD!

Join us in urging our community leaders to confront the harmful impact of single-use plastics.

We are calling on the Mayor and City Council of Homewood to explore and enact bold policy measures similar to those adopted in other cities. Our goal is to transition Homewood to the use of reusable or biodegradable shopping bags, promoting a cleaner, healthier environment for all.
