Biden’s EPA is drafting standards that will clean up harmful air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from new heavy-duty vehicles. They have a responsibility to slash air pollution, protect communities, and address the climate crisis — and can do so by strengthening these standards. They’re accepting public input but only for a limited time!
Dirty diesel-engine trucks are clogging America’s highways. These trucks are fueling climate change and an urgent public health crisis across the country — causing deadly diseases such as asthma, heart problems, and cancer.
Fortunately, the Biden administration has a chance to change that: Biden’s EPA is developing standards that will dictate how much air pollution new heavy-duty vehicles will be allowed to emit. But the current proposal does NOT go far enough and fails to accelerate the transition to zero-emission trucks.
Please submit your official public comment urging EPA to significantly strengthen its proposed clean truck standards — before it’s too late!
