EPA Must Clean Up Cement Kilns Now


The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has given the cement industry a free pass to spew mercury pollution into our air and water for far too long. We must tell EPA it is time to do its job and adopt strong protections against mercury pollution for all U.S. cement kilns, to require cement kilns to test their actual mercury emissions, and to make this information readily available to the public.


Tell the EPA to do its job and clean up mercury pollution!
