Texans For Clean Water

Two men. One boat. A whole lot of trash removed from Buffalo Bayou. Meet the Bayou-Vac—and the people proving that keeping Texas waterways clean takes grit, innovation, and commitment. texansforcleanwater.org/post/two-men-a…

New study: Texas urged to adopt deposit refund system amid unstable plastic import market Read it here: lonestarstandard.com/stories/675577… @TheTrottSpot @RecycleTexas

The aluminum we discard could be a cornerstone of a cleaner, stronger, more resilient economy. It’s time to act—because clean water and clean metals go hand in hand.

Recycling is faster, cheaper, and cleaner. Recycling facilities cost about $150M and take 2 years to build—far less than a smelter.

Facing steep 50% tariffs on imported aluminum under the Trump administration, the solution may be closer than we think—right in our recycling bins.

The Texans for Clean Water team traveled to Washington, D.C., to meet with congressional leaders and build momentum behind a smarter, more strategic approach to recycling policy—one rooted in conservation, accountability, and domestic economic strength. texansforcleanwater.org/post/texans-fo…

Cities like Killeen are paying for the cost of cleanup—literally. A smarter recycling system could cut litter, save taxpayer dollars, and let local crews focus on what matters most. texansforcleanwater.org/post/keeping-k…

Shoutout to the Environmental Communications students at UT Austin! Their “Longhorns Don’t Litter” project is raising awareness of stormwater pollution and protecting Waller Creek—one storm drain at a time. texansforcleanwater.org/post/storm-dra…
