On June 16, 2022, CPR Initiative along with five renowned climate experts—including Dr. James E. Hansen—filed a citizens’ petition under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) demanding that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) phase out greenhouse gas (GHG) pollution and compel major climate polluters to clean up their mess.
But the Agency said "No," asserting that it is already doing enough.
The science, however, is crystal clear: Devastating climate impacts are upon us already, and far worse is yet to come. Further delay in undertaking a comprehensive phase out of climate pollution is no longer tenable.
And so, in partnership with key allies—including the City of Boulder, Colorado—CPR Initiative now seeks your considered thoughts on the question: What More Must the United States Do on Climate? Together we will build, and then we will convey this public record to EPA, giving that Agency another chance to do the right thing.
Our first public hearing on climate action, co-sponsored by the City of Boulder, is slated for November 1, 2022, in the Boulder City Council Chambers, from 10am to 1pm. We look forward to seeing you there, in person or via Zoom!
