This is to appeal to all citizens to support the EPA’s new proposed emission standards for power plants to stop mercury and other toxins from filling our air, land and water. More coal dust in air is not OK, as it contains mercury. Many fish are too dangerously toxic to eat now, due to mercury levels, right?
We need less pollution for our babies to thrive, not more pollution. Mercury is already in our air. Big Coal gave working men black lung disease. Can we trust coal promoters when they now say that it’s OK to demolish our Rocky Mountains, then haul the tons of coal from inside these mountains on long trains across America?
These trains will drop mercury-filled coal dust all the way. Coal trains would to go through Camas and Vancouver and then north to large ships taking tons of coal to China.
Americans must make politicians stop revising laws that promote dirtier air, thus damaging all our babies’ lungs. I want my grandbabies to be allowed outside, don’t you?
