ACTION SPOTLIGHT

ACT NOW: The EPA is Poised to Release
Vital New Limits on Toxic Chemicals

As many as 94 million people across the
country drink water contaminated with toxic PFAS chemicals.

This daily exposure to PFAS — known as “forever chemicals”
because they are extremely resistant to breaking down in the
environment — has been linked to a long list of health effects,
including cancer.

The EPA proposed limiting the levels of six PFAS chemicals in
drinking water last year — a huge win for safe drinking water and
our public health. NRDC activists sent 17,433 comments to the EPA
in support of the new standards — now, it's time for us to finish
the job.

Now the EPA is about to issue the final
standards — urge them to quickly and equitably enact strong
measures to get toxic PFAS chemicals out of our water. ( [link removed] )

CAMPAIGN UPDATE

Clean Vehicle Rules Are Here – What’s
Next?

The EPA has released its final of clean
car and heavy-duty truck standards. The clean car standards will
cut carbon emissions and other tailpipe pollutants starting in
2027 – as well as deliver major carbon reductions, save drivers
money on fuel and maintenance, and reduce asthma attacks, heart
disease, and other illnesses.

But the heavy-duty vehicles rule does not go far enough in
cutting carbon emissions, and is a big example of how the work is
just beginning to clean up one of the nation’s most polluting
sectors.

Over 40,000 NRDC activists submitted comments to the EPA on these
critical rules – and your voices were heard! Now it’s on the
Department of Transportation to finalize their new standards for
cars and big trucks and buses, and we need your help to push them
to the finish line.

Urge the Department of Transportation
to finalize the strongest possible clean vehicle standards and
curb emissions from transportation — the largest source of
climate pollution in the U.S.! ( [link removed] )
