"Methane gas should never be certified as “green,” “sustainable” or “responsible”. Putting a green stamp on gas misleads the public about the true environmental harm of fossil fuels. @bhuxleyreicher @mattcasale_PIRG and @NeumannJo explain. environmentamerica.org/resou…

So excited to know Georgia's Gov. mansion has a 'First Hive'! @environmentgeorgia
Thanks to hardworking researchers and @universityofga's Bee Program, we're one step closer to reversing the population decline of these important pollinators.
We have our own First Hive at the Governor's Mansion and are thankful for this advancement.

Georgia offered schools money to test their water for lead. Most didn’t sign up. Why? @LedgerEnquirer @telegraphga #readlocal ledger-enquirer.com/news/sta…

We’re out at the Capitol, where the group Environment Georgia is advocating for more lead testing in state schools, as well as a state fund to help with repairs to make school water safe. @ATLNewsFirst

@EnvironmentGA is going to @BetsyforGeorgia and @sonya4ga’s neighborhood to canvass for a foam free GA! These plastics are littering our neighborhoods and they’re not going to biodegrade out of existence… they will persist if a statewide ban is not underway

By severely limiting the EPA's power to fight carbon pollution, the Supreme Court has put decades of progress toward a greener future on the line. But the EPA isn't our only path to fight climate change: Tell Congress to end fossil fuel subsidies.

Our @EnvironmentGA team’s headed to @BeckyEvansGA’s district today to talk to folks about a #foamfreeGA! As long as businesses keep handing out polystyrene foam containers, plastic will continue to pollute our environment, warm our climate & threaten our health #wildlifeoverwaste
