We’re getting closer to first pitch here at Yankee Stadium and the air quality is real bad. It’s ominous. Smells like smoke. Meanwhile, Triple-A SWB just postponed their game due to poor air quality…

That’s a start

.@EPA just ruled that incinerators using chemicals to break down plastics will be strictly regulated, and must meet emission limits. This decision reverses a Trump-era proposal that would relax clean-air rules, and is a win for our clean air! ejus.tc/3OQ7llU

When coal is burned, a toxic waste known as coal ash is left behind. Filled with hazardous metals and toxic pollutants such as arsenic, lithium, and lead, coal ash is dangerous. @EPA recently made huge progress on coal ash. Now it's time to finish the job. earthjustice.org/action/clean-u…


Sad day for wetlands

BREAKING: In a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court severely weakened the Clean Water Act in Sackett v. EPA. This is a catastrophic loss for water protections across the country and a win for big polluters, putting our communities, public health, and local ecosystems in danger.
