Thank Senator Casey for Protecting Air, Health!

From our friends at the American Lung Association:

"On June 20, Senator Casey stood up for our health and voted NO on Senator Inhofe’s S.J. Res. 37, a resolution that would have overturned the EPA’s Mercury and Air Toxics Standards and allowed power plants to pollute the air without restriction. By voting “no,” Senator Casey voted to protect the air we all breathe – he voted against big polluters and for our health.

Thanks to Senator Casey, the public’s exposure to dangerous pollutants like mercury, hydrogen chloride, arsenic, and lead will be significantly reduced. Limiting the emissions of these pollutants will protect thousands of lives and prevent thousands of asthma attacks and heart attacks each year."

Air Quality Action Tip

 

Consider Replacing Your Charcoal Grill

Propane, natural gas, and electric grills emit much less pollution and are cleaner choices than a charcoal grill. If you choose to use a charcoal grill, be sure to use appropriate starting methods such as self-lighting charcoal, an electric coil or a chimney briquette instead of charcoal lighter fluid.
