We're drowning in #plastic, and the problem is only getting worse. That’s why we sat down with author, educator, environmentalist, and founder of @beyondplastics.bsky.social @judithenck.bsky.social to discuss the plastic crisis & how we can address it. Learn more: VPIRG.org/EarthDay2026 #EarthDay

Saturday marked the largest single day protest in U.S. history. We were honored to organize the rally in Montpelier alongside incredible partners. Vermont is strongest when we stand together. ⁠ ⁠ #nokings3 #nk3 #vtpoli #democracy⁠

The ensuing all-day standoff culminated when ICE deployed tear gas, flashbangs, and pepper balls against protesters. VPIRG condemns these actions designed to tear our communities apart - more to come. #vtpoli [2/2] Photos by @ekushen.bsky.social

Trump's EPA is moving to rescind the 2009 "endangerment finding," which affirms that climate pollution threatens public health and welfare, and is the foundation of U.S. efforts to combat the climate crisis. #climate #vtpoli #EPA

Surprise! Thought we were done for the season? Us too. But when @welch.senate.gov comes to town, you clear your schedule and pull up a chair. This bonus episode of #VermontsVoice is now available to stream wherever you get your podcasts, or at vpirg.org/vermonts-voice. #vtpoli

Vermont took a huge step for pollinators last year by passing Act 182, a law to phase out toxic neonic pesticides. Now, it’s time to make sure this landmark law is as strong in practice as it is on paper. #vtpoli #savethebees Full Hearings Schedule & Sign-Up: agriculture.vermont.gov/best-managem...
Text: "Speak up to protect our pollinators! Public hearings start today! Make your voice heard! Details below."
