Be one of the first to donate $40 or more [ https://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2155/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=12056 ] and get a Clean Water Action Tote Bag!

Dear Mary,

Do double duty for Clean Water! Be one of the first 40 people to donate $40 [ https://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2155/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=12056 ] or more in response to this email, and we will send you a great reusable Clean Water Action tote bag!

The average American uses more than 500 plastic shopping bags a year. Worldwide, we use nearly a trillion single-use, disposable plastic bags. Studies have shown that twenty-five percent of debris found in storm drains is single-use plastic bags. This garbage makes its way to our beaches, bay and waterways, polluting our shorelines and contributing to gigantic patches of garbage floating in the ocean. 

Clean Water is working with cities and states across the country to fight this plastic pollution by reducing our use of disposable plastic bags. We've helped get dozens of cities and counties in California and the city of Austin TX to ban disposable bags. Other places, including Washington DC have put fees in place to encourage the use of re-usable bags. You can help us expand this work to more places with a donation of $40 [ https://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2155/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=12056 ] -- and you may get a Clean Water Action tote bag too if you act quickly [ https://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2155/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=12056 ]!

With the 40th anniversary of the Clean Water Act this month, what better time to make a special gift today to show your support for clean water. Do your part [ https://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2155/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=12056 ] and help us fight plastic pollution – and get a special tote bag [ https://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2155/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=12056 ]!  

Yours for Clean Water,
Bob Wendelgass, President & CEO
