This week, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is holding the only public hearing scheduled on the Trump administration’s proposed rollback of the Clean Power Plan, our country’s first federal standards for carbon pollution from power plants.
Trump and Scott Pruitt are again putting polluter profits before the health and safety of our communities and the environment, despite overwhelming support of the Clean Power Plan, demonstrated by millions of comments, and thousands rallying and testifying in support at listening sessions and public hearings.
Registration for the EPA hearing is closed, however, the Sierra Club and allies are hosting the People’s Hearing for Healthy Communities on November 28 in Charleston, They’ll collect comments to share with the EPA. Bus are available to bring you to Charleston from Huntington and Morgantown. Details here.
RSVP and join us on November 28 to remind Trump and his administration that he is out of step with the public and the world, and that we support climate action now!
Written comments will be accepted through January 16, 2018. Click here to learn more.
People and Planet First!
One white-haired man on TV advocated rollback of the Clean Power Plan because “It wouldn’t affect him in his lifetime.” That would only be between twenty or thirty years so he wa probably correct. But I am scandalized by the selfish, shortsightedness of our old Representatives, Senators, legislators, governors, and the president. After all most of them have children, grandchildren or great-grandchildren that have to survive in the world they are creating. Strictly proceed with with the Clean Power Plan, aggressively enforce the Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act.
