Three state agencies in New Mexico have awarded $4.7 million in grants to 97 local entities for projects aimed at enhancing the state's environment. The Departments of Transportation, Tourism, and Environment are spearheading this initiative as part of a statewide #BreakingBadHabits campaign. This effort encourages residents to preserve New Mexico's unique landscape.

Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham emphasized the importance of these grants, stating, "New Mexico is the most beautiful state in the nation and it’s time for all of us to commit to ‘Breaking Bad Habits’ of littering and trashing our state." She added that these funds will be crucial in eliminating litter and protecting the state's natural beauty.

For those interested in participating or seeking more information, resources are available through various programs including ¿Que Linda? | NMDOT, New Mexico Tourism Department Clean and Beautiful, RAID Grant Program, and BreakingBadHabits.nm.gov.
