Dear james,
You might be very surprised to learn that right now, there are ZERO limits on power plant pollution in the United States. 0. Nada. Zilch. Not a one. That’s why power plants are able to emit one-fourth of the country's carbon pollution every year.
But that’s set to finally change with the Biden administration’s new power plant rules that could reduce US power plant emissions by 90%. Congress has authorized the White House to implement these rules and they are beyond vital to our country’s commitment to cutting carbon pollution in half by 2030.
The EPA is taking public comments on these rules RIGHT NOW, so it’s critical that we make our voices heard, put an end to unlimited pollution, and make sure our grandchildren have a livable planet to enjoy.
Tell the EPA to implement Biden's new power plant pollution rules!
Unfortunately, this is far from a done deal. The new rules will be opposed every step of the way by the fossil fuel companies who have made colossal fortunes off of polluting the atmosphere and giving lung disease to the American public.
But we can’t let them win. Letting them weaken the carbon standards could allow many fossil fuel plants to continue to pollute and profit for decades more without repercussions for driving the climate crisis.
We need to show up for clean air and climate action and push President Biden to set the strongest possible standards on power plant pollution!
The EPA is legally required to read every single public comment submitted, so let’s get loud and tell Biden to finalize the strongest possible version of these rules.
Tell the EPA to pass Biden's new power plant pollution rules ASAP!
