President Obama's EPA has made history on climate by proposing federal limits on carbon pollution for power plants -- pollution that is linked to climate disruption.
We all know the devastation of 2011's record breaking extreme weather events -- from Texas' worst wildfire season in history to a terrible string of deadly tornadoes in the Midwest. As the Earth warms, severe weather events are becoming our new normal.
With strong carbon pollution protections, we can move off of outdated and dirty coal-fired power plants. Our country has 21st century clean energy technologies. It's time to use them.
Tell the EPA that we support strong industrial carbon pollution safeguards to fight climate disruption!
Deadline extended: We now have until June 25. Please act now!

Dear Administrator Jackson,
Thank you for standing up for clean air and protecting our families!
As you know, carbon pollution is the main contributor to climate disruption and is linked to life-threatening air pollution like asthma-inducing smog, making it a serious hazard to Americans' health and future.
I strongly support the proposed new standards to clean up dangerous carbon pollution from new power plants.
By setting carbon pollution protections, the EPA is moving forward to clean up and modernize the way we power our country -- ensuring healthier kids, families and workers, while creating much-needed jobs and fighting climate disruption.
Thank you for protecting our families by proposing new standards to clean up dangerous carbon pollution from new power plants!
