My husband and I recently participated in a Zoom meeting, sponsored by the Natural Resources Council of Maine. One bill before this legislative session is L.D. 1541, An Act to Support and Improve Municipal Recycling Programs and Save Taxpayer Money. Sarah Nichols, the Sustainable Maine director for NRCM, shares in her testimony of May 10 that Maine’s municipal recycling programs are still struggling because of high costs to taxpayers and too much packaging.
On a recent trip to my local grocery store, I noticed how often – especially in the produce section – identical products were available in bulk in their “naked” form, or packaged in plastic.

Maine Rep. Nicole Grohoski, who is drafting a similar packaging bill she plans to introduce soon, is already promoting the measure as a way to increase the state’s recycling rate.
