Tell the EPA: Protect public health from soot pollution

Docket number EPA-HQ-OAR-2015-0072-0293

Soot pollution is deadly. It contributes to tens of thousands of deaths each year, and new research finds it could exacerbate cases of COVID-19.

Freezing standards on soot pollution at their current level is an unsafe, unsound decision. In order to protect the public from the dangers of exposure to airborne soot -- including lung disease, bronchitis and cancer -- I urge you to tighten standards on industrial pollution.

Sincerely,
