Diesel exhaust continues to pose significant public health risks in Washington, especially for communities located near industrial operations.   Our new $25 million grant program will reduce harmful diesel emissions by helping operators transition their fleets and equipment to cleaner, zero emission technologies. This is a unique moment for both businesses and nonprofits to shape diesel reduction efforts in Washington. https://lnkd.in/eiTqSuuZ

Do you work at a hair salon, nail salon, or spa? Here’s what you need to know about Washington's new Toxic-Free Cosmetic Act (TFCA). 💅 TFCA bans specific harmful chemicals in cosmetics. If your cosmetic products contain any of the banned chemicals, you'll need to swap them out for safer alternatives. This video shows what products are more likely to contain the banned chemicals like hair dye, nail polish, skincare, and makeup products. Do you use or sell any of these products at your Washington business? It's time to sell through older products and make room for safer cosmetic products at your workplace. To learn more about how to comply with the law and to read the full list of banned chemicals, go to ecology.wa.gov/cosmetology
