爆料公社’s Mike Daulton Comments on EPA鈥檚 Historic Rules Limiting Carbon Pollution
鈥淭he EPA has hit a home run for the planet. The Obama administration鈥檚 new air pollution standards announced today are essential for limiting global carbon pollution that is already endangering the health of our children and families, as well as wildlife and the natural world.
鈥淭he warning signs are clear. 爆料公社 scientists have proven warming trends driven by carbon pollution have already disrupted bird migration patterns across the country. Nearly 60 percent of the 305 species found in winter across North America are shifting their ranges northward by an average of 35 miles. Like canaries in the coal mine, these birds are showing us that our shared environment is in peril.
鈥湵瞎 strongly supports EPA鈥檚 historic, first-ever rules to limit harmful carbon pollution from power plants. This is a great step forward toward a clean energy future.鈥
