Take Action Today!The Clean Water Protection Act and The Appalachia Restoration Act are bills in the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate that will sharply reduce mountaintop removal coal mining and protect clean drinking. If adopted, they will protect the quality of life for Appalachian coalfield residents who face frequent catastrophic flooding and pollution or loss of drinking water as a result of mountaintop removal coal mining. But neither of the bills will pass though Congress, nor will the Obama administration make lasting changes, unless we take the time to contact our elected officials. Using the handy tools developed by iLoveMountains.org, you can do just that! Simply click here, enter your zip code, and either thank your elected official for sponsoring these bills, or ask him or her to do so, by using the letter provided. It’s easy, effective and will take you just a few minutes. ilovemountains.orgClick here to get regular updates on actions you can take to help end the destruction of Appalachia.
