Citizen's Hearing on Carbon Pollution – June 11

This March, the EPA proposed limits on carbon dioxide (CO2) from new fossil fuel power plants and is now collecting comments from the public. Unfortunately, public hearings were only scheduled in two locations in the country, neither in the Southeast.

Clean Air Carolina, National Council of Churches and Southern Alliance for Clean Energy have joined with Mayfield Memorial Missionary Baptist Church, St. Paul Baptist Church and other organizations to host a Citizen's Hearing to give North Carolinians and other Southeastern residents the opportunity to speak to the EPA in support of carbon limits on new power plants.
