Stand up to DIRTY COAL!

From Mountain Top Removal, the air pollution Dirty Coal-Burning Plants spew to the Hazardous Coal Ash left behind, COAL IS DIRTY!

More than 500 MOUNTAINS have been leveled, leaving environmental destruction in Dirty Coal's wake.



This from the Natural Resources Defense Council :

It’s crazy: big polluters get to pump unlimited amounts of climate-wrecking carbon pollution into our air.

Carbon pollution fuels global warming, which means more climate chaos -- from record droughts and floods, to wildfires and super storms.

Stand up against big polluters and demand limits on carbon pollution from power plants.

That’s right, the biggest single source of carbon pollution is power plants. In fact, power plants belch out more global warming pollution than cars, trucks and airplanes combined.

The Obama Administration has introduced limits on carbon pollution from all future power plants. But Big Coal and their friends in Congress are doing everything they can to gut these historic protections.

Help fight back by telling EPA to put people before polluters.

Big Coal and other fossil fuel industries have poured millions into lobbying efforts against EPA’s proposed life-saving protections. And just last week, Congressional cronies for Big Coal announced they're moving ahead with their plan to interfere with the EPA's authority to limit carbon pollution.

These new limits could be a game-changer in our fight to curb global warming, but without strong public support they may never see the light of day. That's why your help is so important in this fight.

Tell the EPA you support strong limits on new power plants. And make sure they deliver on the President’s promise to issue rules that crack down on existing power plants as well.

With your help, we can face down Big Coal and get this done.

Sincerely,
Frances

Natural Resources Defense Council

Stand Up to Big Coal!

The EPA is under attack. Big polluters and their congressional cronies are doing everything they can to undermine life-saving limits on the amount of carbon pollution power plants spew into our air. Tell the EPA that you support strong carbon pollution protections that will fight global warming and put people before polluters.
