NC Public Citizen’s Hearing on EPA Carbon Rules
July 22, 2014 @ 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm
On June 2, EPA announced the first ever regulations of carbon pollution on existing power plants. The Clean Power Plan, as it is called, has a chance to be the single largest step the U.S. has ever taken to combat climate change. EPA is holding public hearing in four cities – North Carolina’s closest hearing is in Atlanta – NC Interfaith Power & Light, Clean Air Carolina, EnvironmentNC, National Wildlife Federation, and Sierra Club NC Chapter are collaboratively organizing a Citizen’s Hearing in Chapel Hill to gather testimony and public comments on the plan. Organizing groups will deliver these official public comments to EPA.
Think it’s time for the U.S. to acknowledge and address climate change, then come make your voice heard!
