Next week, the EPA is holding hearings in Atlanta on the standards to reduce climate pollution from existing power plants announced in June. These unprecedented standards would regulate CO2 emissions from existing power plants. This plan is a necessary step in the move to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across the country.
To show support for this historic action, the Sierra Club is organizing a regional rally at the EPA’s hearing on the new climate action at Woodruff Park in Atlanta on Tuesday, July 29, beginning at noon in Woodruff Park. The hearings will take place on July 29 and 30 at the Sam Nunn Atlanta Federal Center, Main Tower Bridge Conference Area, Conference Room B, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta
