Let's Give Our National Parks a Spring Cleaning!
Apr 12, 2007

Focus:Environment
Action Request:Other
Location:United States

Hi,


I just took action to protect our national parks, and I hope you'll join me.


Pollution from power plants is spoiling views in some of our greatest national parks. Can you believe that these beloved national park sites are among hundreds in EPA-designated "poor air quality" areas?


  * Grand Canyon National Park
  * Yosemite National Park
  * Acadia National Park
  * The Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, and the Jefferson Memorial


I just sent an e-postcard to Congress asking them to clean up the air in our national parks. The e-postcard is from the National Parks Conservation Association. I hope you'll do the same:

It's easy. It only takes a minute. And the e-postcard is pretty great. If enough people send the message, Congress will hear us--and our kids will be able to enjoy clean air in our national parks.


Thanks for joining me:
