Protect Our Communities from Carbon Pollution

The Issue

We have an obligation to our kids and future generations to protect them from danger. Right now industrial carbon pollution is fueling climate change, which threatens our health, is dangerous to Florida’s coral reefs, beaches and tourism, and puts our drinking water at risk.

Right now, coal-fired power plants can dump unlimited amounts of carbon pollution into the air we breathe, and they are the single largest source of this dangerous pollution in the US. That’s why I support the Environmental Protection Agency’s plans to set the first-ever standards that will limit the carbon pollution from power plants.

It’s time we put a clean power plan in place for Florida that cleans up dirty coal fired power plants, helps our homes and businesses be more energy efficient, and invests in clean solar power to create more jobs right here in Florida.
