Dear MonValley Clean Air Coalition,
7.3 million metric tons.
That's how much methane the gas industry spills into our nation's air every year. Considering that methane is 86 times worse for climate change than carbon dioxide and is emitted alongside air toxics and other unhealthy pollutants, that spells bad news for our future.
This August, the EPA proposed the first ever rules to cut methane pollution. It's a good first step, but the rules don't go nearly far enough if we're serious about mitigating climate change and protecting public health. That's why we need you out there with us, telling the federal government and Pennsylvania that we're fed up with unchecked pollution from the gas industry and we expect the toughest rules possible.
Will you join us to rally for clean air in Pittsburgh?
