The Bigger Better Bottle Bill would update New York's bottle deposit law to include increasingly popular non-carbonated beverages such as bottled water, iced teas, and sports drinks.  It also would require beverage companies to return unclaimed deposits to NY to protect our environment. We need to act now to emphasize the need to make our communities cleaner, increase recycling, and generate more funding for recycling, parks, and other local environmental programs. 

Governor David Paterson has pledged to make this one of his top environmental priorities for this legislative session.

This is a great opportunity, but time is running out and the industry opponents are using all their clout to oppose it.

That's why we need grassroots pressure – especially on the State Senate, which has blocked this measure every year.  Your action NOW could make the difference.  The legislative session will be coming to a close in the next few weeks.   Let's get it done this year!

The next few weeks are crucial for this campaign.  Please contact your Senator and Assemblymember TODAY and urge them to pass the Bigger Better Bottle Bill!
