[Climate Change Action] Online Climate Activism Highlight (USA)

[Calvin Jones]

If you live in the USA then you probably already know about the current battle over clean air legislation. If not, here is a summary.

One of the more interesting facts about the clean air act is it's economic payoff:

"The Clean Air Act is widely considered one of the most effective environmental laws ever passed.

In fact, it provides $30 in health benefits for every dollar invested in pollution controls."

Special interests have their reasons for opposing legislation but the common good is overwhelmingly best surved by  keeping a lid on polloution.

 Here is a online petition with >175'000 signatures where you can show your support for implementing the clean air act.
