The EPA's Solution to Truck Pollution Doesn't Go Far Enough to Protect Us From the Poison Pouring From Tailpipes

 

A new rule suggested by the EPA would curb the pollution from heavy-duty vehicles. While this is a victory for environmental justice, activists have pointed out a major hole in the proposal -- it still doesn't require new trucks to be fully electric. Electric vehicles are absolutely necessary in order to achieve a fossil fuel-free future. A fossil-free future is absolutely necessary for the health of people and planet alike. Sign now to put pressure on the EPA to expand the current proposal to include truck electrification requirements!

 

Any regulation reducing pollution is good, but partial climate action is simply not enough. The clock is ticking, and every single regulatory measure counts. The fact that the EPA is finally paying attention to the massive negative health consequences from heavy duty vehicles is a great step forward, but we must think bigger, and ensure that electric vehicles are required. The future depends on it. Sign the petition now if you agree!
