Too Late To Go Green, by
Dr. Jean M. Bradt
If we don't go green, this
is what 2035 may be like...
Because of all the toxins in the air, the noxious particles in the water, and the poisonous chemicals in the food, Monchi.
Everybody except the very rich. It takes a lot of cash to protect your home and car from the filthy air and purify every drop of water you come in contact with.
It could pass laws to keep people and businesses from polluting. It used to do that.
Long ago, five years before you were born, our Senators & Representatives passed many laws that allow pollution and even punished some people for trying to get the air and water cleaned up.
Scientists know better than that. Why has Earth gotten so much hotter so fast since the mid-20th century when factories were first built and started burning coal, oil, and gas?
Democrats pledge to fight Republicans’ attempts to destroy our environment.
Forever.
What You Can Do
The Republican leaders are attempting to pollute our environment. For years, they have been passing laws that make climate change worse. Now Republican Senators and Representatives are trying to repeal the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA’s) Endangerment Finding.
Who cares? Anyone concerned with the effects of climate change, that’s who. Part of the EPA’s job is to make sure factories don’t pollute our air with their smoke and soot, and auto manufacturers don’t make gas-guzzlers that emit tons of pollutants in their exhaust fumes. Auto manufacturers have the technology to do better at this. They should use it.
Don't let the administration repeal the Endangerment Finding and disable the EPA! You would not know from one day to the next what the weather would be—fires, hailstorms, thunderstorms, tornadoes—any climate event could occur at any time. Your children would ask you, "Why is the air so polluted it makes me cough?"
Will you can make a 2-minute phone call to the EPA Administrator's office at…
202-564-4700
…and, united with thousands of others making the same call, keep the EPA, the bees, the whales, and all of us alive?
You will reach their voice mail. All you really need to say is, “I am a United States citizen, and I oppose the EPA’s repeal of the Endangerment Finding.”
The Republican leaders are trying to pollute our environment. Make the call.
