Sierra Club Fall 2012

Ferdi Rizkiyanto

By Dixie Stevens and Debbie Matthews of the Florida Sierra Club Waste Minimization Committee

The Sierra Club Florida Waste Minimiz-ation Committee is presenting a Bottle Bill to the State Legislature in the up-coming January session. In 2008, Flor-ida set a 75% Recycling Rate Goal by the year 2020. Studies by Committee on Environmental Preservation and Con-servation suggest profitability and in-creased recycling rates if the Bottle Bill were to be adopted. Florida Legislation will need to determine approach and deposit amount.

What is a Bottle Bill? The bottle bill is a law that requires distributors/retailers to collect a refundable deposit on beverage containers, usually 5 to 10 cents that would be refunded when consumers return the empty bottle.

How does it work? Distributor collects the deposits when they deliver to the retailer. Retailer collects from consumer when we purchase a beverage. Deposit is re-funded to consumer when container is returned. Deposit is refunded to retailer when containers are returned to distrib-utor.

What happens to the returned bottles? Bottles are sent to recyclers where they are sor-ted by color, crushed and used to make new bottles.

How do existing Bottle Bills perform? The 10 States that currently have bottle bills ac-count for 49% of all bottle recycling in the USA. How many bottles are we talk-ing about? A study by UF shows that Floridians consume 36 million sodas and other container beverages on an average day. Bottles represent 5.4% of the waste stream. In 2009, 83% (331,005 tons), were disposed in landfills. Beverage litter may account for 3% of all roadside litter, approxmately 1.3 billion containers!

What would the Bottle Bill mean for Florida? Cleaner and safer beaches and cleaner water (we are a tourism based economy, our beaches and water are one of the

reasons why tourists visit!) Jobs could be created via independently owned recyc-ling centers and via the manufacturing of recycled materials and products. Other benefits for Florida include less garbage in landfills, recycling rates go up (curb-side programs are still not available to over 50% of the population), saved en-ergy and resources, makes producers and consumers responsible for their pack-aging waste.

Initially, there may be an increase in cost to State and manufacturers. This can be covered by unclaimed or abandoned de-posits. It can go to the State, or to the manufacturer or split, depending on how the bill is written. Deposits are much more effective than other programs, however, they work best when combined with other collection methods including curbside recycling.

Suncoast Sierra Club congratulates the Tampa Bay Area's Dr. Brandt Henningsen on winning the Flor-ida Sierra Club's Os-

prey Award. The Osprey Award is presented for extraordinary effort by a governmental staff person to promote or effect changes in policy or practice to protect or preserve Florida's environ-ment.

Dr. Brandt Henningsen is chief environ-mental scientist with the Southwest Flor-ida Water Management District. Hen-ningsen has been with the District’s Sur-face Water Improvement and Manage-ment (SWIM) program since 1987. He has been involved with the design and planning of over 40 habitat restoration projects, including nearly 2,500 acres of coastal habitat along Tampa Bay. He’s become a leading advocate for habitat conservation in Tampa Bay and an au-thority on coastal habitat restoration.

Henningsen studied marine biology at Lamar University and earned a masters degree in biology from Texas A&M be-fore moving to Tampa to attend USF. The restoration projects he has directed have earned national and international recognition for Tampa Bay.

Dr. Henningsen understands the power

of partnerships and volunteer participa-

tion. He has applied his strong back-

ground in coastal ecology to education

initiatives with local nonprofit groups,

civic organizations and schools. Over the

years, he’s led countless tours and

worked with thousands of volunteers —

mostly on weekends — to rid sites of

exotic plants, install marsh plants and

clean up shorelines.

Henningsen is the project manager of

the Terra Ceia Isles Habitat Restoration

project, which is the largest habitat res-

toration project ever conducted within

Brandt Henningsen 2012 Osprey Award Winner

Tampa Bay. The project is restoring ap-

proximately 1,800 acres of habitat in the

Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve and Terra

Ceia Preserve State Park.

“There’s real satisfaction seeing these natural communities evolve, mature and change over time,” Henningsen says. “People will look back and be thankful for these wild spaces.”

The Candidates

Bonnie Aylor

I am a longtime environmental volun-teer and advocate for Sierra Club. I am a certified outings leader and served with the national organization making phone calls to encourage citizens to speak with their politicians. I have hosted Sierra Club movie preview parties for coal and fracking. I have served on the board for the local Audubon Society as well as for other planning committees for non-en-vironmental organizations; working to recruit and maintain members and to encourage attendance at meetings and events. I have a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Environmental Science and Policy with a minor in Mass Communic-ation: Telecommunications Program-ming and Productions and am currently in my final semester for the obtaining a Masters of Science Degree in Environ-mental Management, focusing this semester on Land Management and a capstone project course. I have obtained a certificate in Wildlife Management and Conservation and have worked as a con-sultant in the Environmental Compli-ance Field.I have ideas on how to flourish the club to great potential and would like to be on the Executive Committee so we can help garner those ideas and assist in the recruitment of team members to assist with the many facets of implementation. I look forward to working towards see-ing Suncoast Sierra Club prosper.

Jennifer Brown

We are very environmentally conscien-tious at home and I am learning all I can about things we can all do to protect our environment and create less of a foot-print in our day-to-day lives. I am very eager to become involved with the Si-erra Club and will be dependable in any roles I take on. As a financial advisor I

could contribute that knowledge in the planning processes as well. I feel as though I am a good example to others of making changes in our own lives in areas we are asking for the public's contribu-tion. As a newer member of the area I am anxious to meet local people with similar interests and to help give back to the community. Honestly, I am also looking forward to the opportunity to participate in the great outdoor activities in areas I have never explored! Despite not having much experience in this spe-cific area, I think my passion for the top-ic combined with my determination in projects I take on can make me a valu-able member. I am excited to participate in the club and help whether I am on the Executive Committee or not.

Danielle Carapellucci

I have volunteered for my children's ele-mentary school on the PTA for six years. I am the current President and have served this position for two years and was the secretary prior to this. I plan on continuing to support the school and volunteer. I mention to show I have a taste of what may be expected, and I realize this would be on a much larger scale with the Suncoast Sierra Club. I have organized Hands Across the Sand, an event against off shore drilling and for clean energy, for Indian Rocks Beach. As a photographer I love to share and teach about protecting and enjoying nature. I am looking forward to working with the rest of Suncoast Si-erra Club to help our planet.

Our Help Is NeededAmendment will Protect Florida’s Water and Natural AreasAn effort is now underway to restore Florida’s leadership on water and land conservation. Florida’s Water and Land Legacy, a coalition of the state’s leading conservation organizations including The Sierra Club, The Trust for Public Land, Audubon Florida, Florida Wildlife Federation, and many others, has launched a campaign to place the Florida Water and Land Conservation Amendment on the November 2014 ballot.

The Florida Water and Land Conservation Amendment would dedicate funds from existing revenues generated by real estate transactions to continue Florida’s legacy of restoring critical natural areas, like the Everglades, and protecting Florida’s magnificent waters and lands for future generations.

Florida has a proud legacy of conserving the water quality of our lakes, rivers and springs and acquiring lands necessary to protect drinking water sources that has historically transcended party politics. For the past four decades every Governor, including Governors Graham, Martinez, Chiles, Bush and Crist, has made it priority. Thanks to their leadership popular programs like Florida Forever and its predecessor Preservation 2000 have successfully protected over 2.4 million acres of critical water resources, natural areas, wildlife habitat, parks, greenways, and trails throughout Florida.

Yet since 2009, funding for the Florida Forever program has been essentially eliminated, being slashed by 97.5 percent. This year the legislature allocated only $8.5 million to protect important water protection areas and conservation lands. Compared to the state budget of $60 billion, that means that for every dollar the state spends in 2012, less than two-hundredths of a penny went to the Florida Forever program. That’s less than $1 for every Floridian.

Through a constitutional amendment Floridians can assure that adequate funding is dedicated solely to restoring

critical natural areas, like the Everglades, and protecting Florida’s magnificent waters and lands for future generations. We understand the value of clean and abundant water for people and wildlife, and cherish the natural areas that make Florida special. That’s why the amendment wouldensure that these values have a place in our state’s constitution.For decades a documentary stamp tax (a fee on real estate transactions) has been assessed in Florida to pay for important programs including land conservation and affordable housing. Through a state constitutional amendment one-third of the existing “Doc stamps” would be directed to fund water and land conservation, management, and restoration, providing an estimated $5 billion for conservation in Florida over the next ten years and $10 billion over the twenty-year life of the amendment. This is our best hope to create a stable and long-term funding for conservation and restoration.With almost 2 million acres of important water protection areas, beaches, springs and other vital natural areas that remain vulnerable to unwise development decisions and deep funding cuts, this amendment is our best hope to create a stable and long-term funding for conservation and restoration. It will take one million signatures to place the amendment on the ballot.To meet this challenge we will need an army of volunteers throughout the state gathering signatures in their community. Join the campaign and get involved by signing up to volunteer at www.floridawaterlandlegacy.org/volunteerTo learn more about Florida Water and Land Legacy campaign visit www.floridawaterlandlegacy.org and ‘like’
