The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) dealt a major blow to clean air, public health, and energy affordability last month, with their issuance of two new rules—one which rolls back limits on pollution from fossil fuel power plants and one that weakens fuel efficiency standards, respectively. These actions harm human health and well-being, while also costing American households at the pump and at home.
Actions you can take:
🚲 Drive less, take public transit, bike, carpool, or use e-bikes/scooters to commute
🏠 Make energy upgrades and adopt more energy efficient, all-electric appliances for your home or business
📱Contact your local government representatives and let them know you want their leadership on climate, clean air, and clean transportation
