The
Obama administration recently announced a strong final rule for
national fuel economy standards, a decision that could finally get clean
car technology off the shelf and on our roads.
Many
automakers supported these common-sense regulations, which mark the
first time in U.S. history the federal government has regulated global
warming pollution under the Clean Air Act.
Unfortunately,
the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) is still trying to
keep cleaner cars off our roads. Their lawyers are actively supporting
attempts to block the government's ability to regulate global warming
emissions.
It's time to tell NADA that consumers aren't buying their lemon of a lawsuit. Send a message to NADA to say that American drivers want cleaner cars, not more lobbyists and lawsuits.
Tell NADA to drop its fight against clean cars now >
The
U.S. transportation sector is responsible for emitting more carbon
emissions (the primary global-warming gas) than all but three other
countries. emissions from all sources combined.
Not
only will fuel economy standards cut global warming pollution, but they
will also reduce America's oil consumption and save consumers billions
of dollars at the gas pump.
Take action to support stronger fuel economy standards now >
