This is the future we need for our community to be healthy and safe. We join South Baltimore Community Land Trust in demanding U.S. EPA to require coal to be covered during transport...that's right, millions of tons of coal is shipped by rail in the open air and we pay the price! sierraclub.org/press-releases…
Stand in #solidarity with Baltimore residents & sign Baltimore Transit Equity Coalition's petition to #buildtheredline: bit.ly/BTECRedLine #TransitEquity #Baltimore
We have to breathe in toxic coal dust from uncovered train cars passing 60 ft from our homes. Same for communities across the country. U.S. EPA and President Donald J. Trump have the power to protect us! Call upon them to do the right thing for residents/workers health + safety addup.sierraclub.org/campaigns/prot…
Dave says Climate Action Now!!! President Donald J. Trump Vice President JD Vance Secretary Jennifer Granholm Secretary Pete Buttigieg Secretary Xavier Becerra Secretary Deb Haaland Senator Ben Cardin Chris Van Hollen SenatorBooker Chuck Schumer Hakeem Jeffries Yes, Baltimore exported nearly 1/4 of all us coal exports in q1 2023. Millions of tons of that coal are transported and stored just feet from our homes posing a health and safety risk in addition to the massive climate impacts.
Meleny Thomas of South Baltimore Community Land Trust is speaking now with Maryland LCV to call on Bill Ferguson Speaker Adrienne A. Jones to pass the #ReclaimRenewable Energy Act. MD can't keep burning away our renewable energy $$ on trash incineration. South #Baltimore communities demand a vote now! #mdga24
MD Environment Governor Wes Moore Councilwoman Phylicia Porter Johns Hopkins University And another documented violation from earlier today. Governor Wes Moore this is a problem that requires executive leadership. Delegate Regina T. Boyce this is one of the many air pollution sources of concern in our part of Baltimore alone left unaddressed by the proposed HB24.
We join 60 organizations and call on Governor Wes Moore Speaker Adrienne A. Jones and Bill Ferguson to endorse and pass the #ReclaimRenewable Energy Act in #mdga24. Communities can’t afford to wait to fix this expensive problem - let’s get it done this year!
