Don't Allow Global Warming Pollution to Increase for Decades
Target: U.S. Senate
Sponsored by: Environmental Defense Fund
Sponsored by: Environmental Defense Fund
Senator George Voinovich (R-OH) proposed legislation that would postpone meaningful action on global warming pollution for at least twenty years.
The Voinovich bill is dressed up as a way to take action, but in fact is a detailed prescription for doing nothing.
The proposal would take away state authority to control global warming pollution, undermining efforts in dozens of states, including California, Florida and the Northeast members of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, which have set ambitious emissions reduction targets. And this is just the beginning.
We need to do everything we can to defeat Senator Voinovich's sham proposal. Email your Senators today.

It is obvious that green house gases are hurting our planet. I feel that is completely negligent for our lawmakers to ignore this fact. Please do all that is possible to help our planet, not just for ourselves, but for our children.

The planet can't wait 40, 20 or even 10 years for us to start working on global warming! We have to start making strong choices now and being a role model for the rest of the world! As the old saying goes " Earth, we only have one of them"

Global warming is an urgent issue. It must be addressed now, not later as this bill proposes.

The Constitution does not give Congress the right to command states in the manner Senator Voinovich (R-OH) wants, and he is proposing an environmentally bad bill.
