Plastic Free Savannah, a community coalition of plastic activists, nonprofits, businesses, residents, and scientists have submitted a resolution to the City of Savannah that would "commit the city of Savannah to protect its nature, waterways and neighborhood streets through management of acceptable single use packaging and products."

If passed, the Resolution will hold the City of Savannah to:
1. Phase out purchasing of single use plastics and expanded polystyrene foam and transition to acceptable packaging and products by one year from the date of this resolution within City of Savannah buildings
2. Explore the provision of resources, such as marketing promotion and grants for small local and minority owned businesses who would like to  transition to acceptable packaging and products that will reduce SUP waste while also creating an opportunity to improve business models across Savannah
3. Actively support collective State policy and County policy to promote these goals with other Georgia municipalities that have passed similar resolutions, including Atlanta, Fulton County, and Clarkston.

Add your name to support this Resolution and help protect the City of Savannah's nature, waterways, and neighborhood streets!
