South Baltimore student leader calling on all of us to join together on July 25th to learn about new findings on the public health damages caused by the 2 incinerators in S. Baltimore + how we can put the evidence to use. forms.gle/MWJ2H9KQQK2x2rCY9
Residents and workers are paying $100 million per year in health damages from Baltimore's 2 incinerators...meanwhile officials continue to put more $ to support these very incinerators rather than funding alternatives at scale. Join us on July 25th: forms.gle/JkBP5VoEv93AieYYA
So. Baltimore activists call absence of zero waste funding in @MayorBMScott's FY26 budget “a betrayal.” tinyurl.com/5a8d2ecd w/o $ for curbside yard waste and food scrap collection, composting, etc, they and council members ask, where's the plan to end use of the incinerator?
ALT Food scraps and organic yard waste in Baltimore’s municipal waste stream end up in the BRESCO incinerator or a landfill. Nearby jurisdictions, meanwhile, have separate curbside pickup and composting for yard waste and have piloted or enacted similar programs for food waste. (Fern Shen, Mark Reutter)

Took over a decade but there's a little less greenwashing in Maryland now that incinerating limited natural resources is no longer rewarded with our public subsidies for renewable energy. baltimorebrew.com/2025/04/08…

As S. Baltimore workers + residents work day + night for state policy to offer basic protections, many were woken up early in the morning by the latest incident, a train collision + derailment. Injuries reported. No info being shared on materials spilled. @PhyliciaPorter_
