A few weeks ago I discussed a pending threat from Sen. Murkowski, and it looks like time is short. As you’ll recall, this should-be/ would-be climate champ is leading the charge to prevent the EPA from moving ahead on climate action. This is especially disconcerting, considering her home state of Alaska is feeling and will continue to feel the impacts of climate change far more than most places — just ask folks in Shishmaref and other towns falling into the sea!

One of our country’s most successful and long-running health and environmental laws is under attack and the Wilderness Society wants you to know what you can do to help protect it

First some background: The Clean Air Act, which defines the EPA’s responsibilities for protecting air quality, has been protecting the public from unchecked, dangerous pollution for nearly 40 years.

The Environmental Protection Agency has sent a proposal to the White House that could lay the groundwork for regulating greenhouse gas pollutants that cause climate change.

The EPA’s March 20 proposal is significant because it states that global warming is endangering the public's health and welfare, a reversal of the Bush administration’s landmark decisions to reject scientific and technical recommendations in favor of further public comment on the threat posed by global warming pollution.
