  • Tears, Nightmares, Thoughts, and Prayers

    At Moms, we are filled with thoughts and prayers and tears and nightmares for all the mothers, all the families, torn apart by the brutal drowning of their children in the Texas Hill Country.

    And we are also furious. Furious because the kinds of weather catastrophes we are seeing with increasing frequency are directly linked to climate pollution. And that’s something we can do something about.

  • Congress Backs Trump’s POLLUTION SPREE

    On July 3, Congress passed the Big Brutal Bill. This legislation will roll back urgently needed investments in cleaner energy, delay incentives to cut the methane emissions supercharging global warming, and increase the air pollution our families breathe. Moms are outraged.

    LEARN MORE

  • The POLLUTION SPREE has begun

    On June 11, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced two big ugly rollbacks of major environmental rules that limit toxic pollution from coal and gas power plants.

    These proposed rollbacks of pollution protections from power plant smokestacks and mercury are cruel and unpatriotic. Speak out against Zeldin’s POLLUTION SPREE with #MomsSummerofAction.

  • EPA’s Ability to Protect People From Global Warming Is Under Attack

    The Trump administration is sabotaging EPA’s ability to protect us from climate change by undermining the Endangerment Finding, the foundation of the agency’s ability to regulate greenhouse gas emissions.

    The danger is personal. Our physical and mental health is at risk.

  • How does extreme heat impact our health?

    Extreme heat—when temperatures are much hotter than average—can be dangerous for our health. Climate change is making extreme heat days more frequent and more intense.

    Learn who is most vulnerable to extreme heat, symptoms to watch out for, and signs of heat-related illness.

  • Do you really want to go back to the dirtiest air in America?

    In the 1960s, the U.S. had a deadly pollution problem. Bipartisan solutions, including the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency, helped clean up our air. But now, our air is at risk as pollution rules and protections are threatened.

    Here’s what it looked like before the Clean Air Act.

  • PLASTICS ARE CAUSING A MASSIVE HEALTH CRISIS

    On Thursday, April 3, we held our annual summit in Washington, D.C. and explored the latest research on plastics, human health, and global warming.

    Read about the health dangers of the toxic chemicals found in plastic, including how they get into our lungs.

  • What do plastics have to do with global warming? Everything.

    Plastics and other petrochemicals are the world’s fastest-growing industrial source of greenhouse gases. They are a significant part of the climate-and-fossil-fuels crisis. Every step of the plastics supply chain releases greenhouse gases and other harmful pollutants.

    Learn how the fossil fuel industry affects climate change and what we can do.

  • What to Know About the Petrochemical Industry: Q & A

    Plastics are everywhere, and the industry that makes them is booming. The ubiquity of plastics and other petrochemicals comes at a steep cost to our health, especially for those living near production and processing facilities.

  • VIDEO: JULIANNE MOORE FOR MOMS CLEAN AIR FORCE

    “I remember when I was pregnant, my doctor told me not to eat tuna fish. It is contaminated with mercury. Mercury in food goes right to a baby’s brain. It damages the developing brains of fetuses…. When I was pregnant, I stopped eating tuna. But I never stopped to think about where all that poisonous mercury comes from. Mercury comes from air pollution.”

#MomsSummerofAction: Moms Tell Congress to Stop the Assault on EPA by Polluters
