Hi friend,

Pennsylvania consistently ranks in the top 5 states when it comes to greenhouse gas emissions and has the most premature deaths per capita caused by air pollution of any state. If we’re ever going to start treating this reality like the public health emergency it is, Pennsylvania has got to change course and bring its carbon emissions way down.

One way we can start doing that is by joining the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), a multi-state carbon reduction program that requires fossil fuel power plants to pay for their pollution. Across the northeast, it’s reduced air pollution, created thousands of new jobs, and generated revenue that’s been reinvested to benefit communities and workers.

With discussions happening on RGGI right now, decisions also need to be made to determine exactly how this money will be spent. That’s where the RGGI Investments Act comes in:

Unfortunately, opponents like profit-hungry industry insiders are going full force to block PA from joining RGGI and spreading rumors about the RGGI Investments Act. Will you share our graphic on social media to help us counter those voices and spread the word about the benefits of this critical legislation?

The RGGI Investments Act puts us on the path to address both the existential threat of climate change and to ensure that all Pennsylvanians — from communities that form the backbone of our traditional energy economy to those currently bearing the brunt of health and safety risks associated with pollution and climate change — aren’t left behind in the transition.

We’ll continue to keep you updated on any regulations and decisions made related to RGGI and what you can do to help.

Thanks for all that you do.
