Support clean energy

All recent surveys of small business owners have shown that they support the Environmental Protection Agency’s proposed Carbon Pollution Rules for new power plants that will help propel our country into the renewable, clean energy economy. These rules will also reduce carbon pollution which is driving climate change resulting in rising sea levels and more severe weather events that threaten our small business tourism economy.

Unfortunately, defenders of the coal industry are attacking the proposed EPA rules with false scare tactics of increased costs for electricity.  Here in South Carolina we are not building new coal power plants and instead our increased electricity costs are due to the two new nuclear plants being built in Fairfield County

It is clear that small businesses need to stand up and support the EPA’s proposed Carbon Pollution rules.  Please send a letter in support of the EPA’s proposal during the comment period that ends June 25th.
