RSVP to stop illegal polluting in Pittsburgh
by Dan J. Martin 31 Jan '17

31 Jan '17

Passing along… Below is a message I received from Penn Environment regarding a Meeting on Pitt campus 2/16/17 at 7 pm to stop illegal polluting in Pittsburgh - Please RSVP and attend. Please share with your friends. Thanks. Cheryl/Jackson St. On Monday, January 30, 2017 3:19 PM, "Stephen Riccardi, PennEnvironment Western PA Field Organizer" <action(a)pennenvironment.org<mailto:action@pennenvironment.org>> wrote: There’s a sad truth about many of our cornerstone environmental laws like the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts: they often go unenforced. What does this look like? Powerful industrial polluters dumping toxins in our air and water, and environmental regulators following the desires of those major polluters, instead of establishing protections that put people first. In today’s political climate, it’s more important than ever for citizens to understand how they themselves can go after illegal polluters and use our bedrock environmental laws to hold President Trump’s EPA and local regulators accountable. Join PennEnvironment and national experts who’ve taken on Pittsburgh-area illegal polluters and the agencies that regulate them and won major victories.
