SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Gov. Inslee has signed a series of bills designed to strengthen our state’s environment.

Inslee on Monday signed the Climate Commitment Act, environmental justice legislation, a clean fuels standard and bills related to reducing Washington’s plastic waste and other pollution. He says the state intends to cut climate pollution by over 50% in the next nine years.

Senate Bill 5022 will reduce plastic pollution in Washington by banning certain Styrofoam products, such as foam coolers, packing peanuts and food service products such as hinged clamshells, plates and cups.
