  • BYOGreenwich Mission: BYOGreenwich's mission is to encourage the use of reusable checkout bags in our town for the benefit and welfare of our entire community.
  • If this fact helps: This initiative was voted for by Peter Tesei, John Toner and Drew Marzullo in July 2017. Also it was presented, informally, to Sandy Litvack in December 2017.
  • BYOGreenwich strives to be apolitical.  is encouraged by the blind support this initiative is receiving from our community residents, local businesses and non-profits to keep Greenwich clean and be leaders in environmental stewardship for our Town, our State and our Country.
  • We and our children all need clean water, clean air and clean land! https://byogreenwich.org/
