John,
Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency is trying to end its own ability to fight climate change.
Earlier this summer, the Trump administration proposed rescinding the “endangerment finding,” the scientific basis for regulating climate pollution under the Clean Air Act.1
Now is our chance to make our voices heard. The EPA is required to accept feedback on this proposal from the public — and the deadline to submit a public comment is coming up fast.
If the Trump administration gets its way, it would end the EPA’s ability to protect people and our planet from the climate crisis.
It would be a betrayal of the EPA’s own mission and of decades of climate science. The consequences — more pollution, more extreme climate disasters, more deaths — would be felt for generations.2
The people least responsible for the climate crisis will be the most harmed, while the ones who are responsible — the fossil fuel industry — rake in billions in profit.
We can’t let this happen, John. The time to speak out is NOW, while Trump’s EPA is forced to listen. We’re submitting 350’s official public comment ahead of the deadline on September 22. Will your signature be on it?
In solidarity,
JL Andrepont for 350.org
