Eliminate Dangerous Mercury Pollution from Cement Kilns

Across America, cement kilns emit thousands of pounds of mercury pollution into the air we breathe.

This past February, more than 11,000 Earthjustice supporters sent emails to the Environmental Protection Agency, calling for stronger protections against mercury pollution from cement kilns. This public outcry spurred EPA to reconsider its minimal approach to regulating some of the biggest sources of mercury pollution.

The agency recently published a revised rule limiting toxic
pollution from cement kilns, but more can still be done. Now
is the time to continue the pressure and send EPA a
message: Mercury pollution from cement kilns has got to
stop!

Submit a comment to the EPA demanding stronger protection from mercury
emissions from cement kilns!




Dear Decision Maker,

Cement kilns emit thousands of pounds of mercury pollution each year. EPA has not taken this threat seriously in the past, proposing emission standards that did nothing to address this pollution source. The current rule fails to protect Americans from cement kilns' dangerous mercury emissions.

I demand that you protect public health and the environment from further mercury pollution by adopting emission standards that require the maximum degree in mercury reductions that can be achieved. The cement industry has reaped enormous profits in the past from making cement without controlling its toxic pollution. Bring this free ride to an end, and make the cement industry control its mercury emissions.

Sincerely,
