*[Enwl-eng] Dirty air kills. The EPA says that no longer matters.

                        Tell the EPA to do its job and protect human lives.
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                        Under Trump, the EPA Will No Longer Consider Human Lives When Setting Pollution Limits

                        The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was created for an important reason: to protect our health and the environment we live in. The EPA is tasked with keeping the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the land where we grow our food, clean and healthy for all generations.

                        But the agency just announced a shocking change. The EPA says it will stop counting human lives and health when setting limits on deadly air pollution.



                        Instead, it will only look at how much pollution rules cost businesses.

                        Air pollution is not abstract. Tiny particles called PM2.5 and smog-forming ozone slip deep into our lungs and bloodstream. They trigger asthma attacks, heart and lung disease, and even early death. Modest amounts can harm our lungs as much as smoking does.

                        By ignoring these harms, Trump's EPA is telling us that profit matters more than breathing.

                        This move fits a disturbing pattern under the Trump administration: roll back safeguards, please polluters, and tell communities to deal with the fallout. But the EPA's declared mission is to protect human health and the environment. Ignoring health to cut costs breaks that promise.




                        Sign the petition now and tell the EPA: reverse this decision immediately because our lives are not negotiable.
                       
                 
           
                       
                 Thank you,

                        P.S. The EPA has just announced that instead of setting pollution limits that protect our health, it will set them based on the cost to industry. Sign to tell the EPA: do your job and protect human lives.
