In this Issue: Water Conservation; Offshore wind takes a bold step forward; At the Rhode Island State House (Act On Climate, Climate Literacy Act, Regulating Neonicotinoid Pesticides, The Forest Conservation Act, 100% Renewable Electricity by 2030; and other legislation we're following) sign up to receive the Eagle Eye in your email inbox.
We need to protect bees, butterflies, and all other pollinators ... your ACTION is needed today! House Bill 5641 and Senate Bill 702 (H 5641, S 702) would regulate the sale of neonicotinoid pesticides and we have an opportunity to move both bills out of committee and to the floors of both chambers. And we need your help.
In this Issue: Let's Talk About Trees!; Good News for the Migratory Bird Act!; At the Rhode Island State House (Act On Climate, Regulating Neonicotinoid Pesticides, The Forest Conservation Act, Solar Siting: Closing the 10 MW loophole, and The Climate Literacy Act.) sign up to receive the Eagle Eye in your email inbox.
CALL TO ACTION: Support the 2021 Climate Literacy Act! Right now, the Climate Literacy Act (S-464 / H-5625) is being held in "committee" and needs to be voted out to the entire General Assembly if it is to have a chance at becoming law.
