Why is the Dirty Power Scam Bad for Americans?

Climate Reality
  
Dear Tu,
We’ll cut to the chase: Today, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is headed up by a former coal lobbyist. And acting EPA Administrator Wheeler is still working for polluters instead of the American people. Here are three simple reasons why the EPA’s proposed replacement for America’s Clean Power Plan is bad news for all of us:
1. The Dirty Power Scam is bad for our health. Plain and simple, the Dirty Power Scam puts Big Polluters over people. It allows the fossil fuel industry to keep pumping more and more pollution into our atmosphere without meaningful federal limits.
  
And who pays? American families do – with our health. In fact, according to the EPA’s own analysis, this new rule could mean up to 1,400 more premature deaths and 96,000 more cases of exacerbated asthma every year by 2030.
2. The Dirty Power Scam is bad for American jobs. Again, according to the EPA’s own analysis, the Dirty Power Scam is expected to create zero or negligible net new jobs. And this while solar photovoltaic installer and wind turbine service technician top the list of the fastest-growing occupations in the US. The Trump Administration needs to see which way the wind is blowing and create policies that actually help American workers.
3. The Dirty Power Scam fails to address climate change. This new rule would allow power plants to release at least 12 times the amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere over the next decade.
Yes, you read that right – 12 times as much carbon pollution. In a time when we see the impacts of climate change all around us, we can’t afford to keep pumping more and more carbon dioxide into our atmosphere.
