EPA wants your feedback on the proposed Biofuel standards

care2 petitionsite actionAlert

There's huge interest in the role biofuels can play in reducing global warming emissions from vehicles. But research shows that conventional biofuels can result in serious pollution when forests and grasslands are plowed to make room for farmland to grow fuel crops.

The EPA is in the process of creating the first national global warming pollution standards for ethanol, biodiesel and other renewable fuels, and they need to hear from you about global warming pollution from conventional biofuel production. »

Lobbyists from the conventional biofuel industry are pushing the EPA to ignore vital scientific findings about biofuel global warming pollution.

We can't let that happen. Fortunately, the EPA wants your feedback on the proposed standards -- but we only have until September 25 to submit comments!

Please tell Administrator Lisa Jackson that the EPA must use the best available science to ensure that biofuels truly become part of a clean transportation future. Act now. »

Thanks for taking action!
