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.

If the Feds won't fix the problem, at least get out of the way of the states who want to address it!

We currently have the technology for low emission vehicles. Let's continue to support clean air by legislation which reduces emissions now.

We need to take immediate action against emissions. I want my children to live long lives and unless we do something to stop the progression of global warming now I fear there will be no future for them. Please take a stand against the Voinovich proposal. Thank you.

California sets higher standards than the Feds. I do not want our actions in favor of the environment compromised by weak Federal pacifications and platitudes...
