NRCM Rocks! Open mic night at the Liberal Cup

Last night, NRCM hosted "Music Inspired by the Environment" - an open mic night at the Liberal Cup in Hallowell.  What a FUN evening, filled with amazing musicians from all over the state.  We had 16 performers and a full house at the Cup!  The songs were all inspired by the environment, and some were original pieces composed by the musicians themselves.  Thanks to everyone who came to listen, came to perform, and to the Liberal Cup for a wonderful evening!

Matt Prindiville testifies on LD 973, "An Act to Provide for the Safe Collection and Recycling of Mercury-Containing Light Bulbs"

Matt Prindiville, NRCM's toxics project director, testified at the Maine Legislature this morning. For those of you who were unable to attend this public hearing, we thought you would like to see Matt testifying on behalf of NRCM, urging the safe collection and recycling of CFL bulbs. 

NRCM's staff, members, and activists are hard at work during this busy legislative session - and we encourage you to join our Action Network so that you can be notified at a moment's notice when your calls, letters, and testimony are needed most to protect Maine's environment and the health of Maine's citizens and wildlife.
