Each year, the oil and gas industry releases 16 million metric tons of methane into the atmosphere. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas responsible for a quarter of the warming of the planet. Reducing methane pollution from the oil and gas industry is the single fastest, most cost-effective way to slow the rate of warming today. We have a great opportunity to reduce methane until July 30: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking comments from YOU about regulating methane. Sign our petition today telling the EPA to cut methane pollution. Air pollution is also dangerous to human health and has detrimental impacts on entire communities, especially communities of color where rates of asthma and other diseases are more prevalent. We must stop methane pollution to help save lives. Since methane is 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide in the short-term, it’s crucial to cut methane emissions for human health and the health of the planet. Act today: Tell the EPA to enact strong regulations against methane pollution. For a healthy planet, |
