Time To Act On Climate

Climate change is here! We could contact Congressman Peter DeFazio and ask for real action — or is it too late? DeFazio, with his years of experience and his support from fellow members of Congress has the best chance of making the needed legislation. How about a tax on gasoline or diesel fuels? How about a doubling of industries’ emission fee of Title V of the Clean Air Act? It is an easy way to tax dirty industries such as Seneca and International Paper. This would be a real beginning.
