This past Sunday the Sierra Club's Executive Director Michael Brune went on "60 Minutes" to highlight the Sierra Club's strong position that we need tougher regulation of the natural gas industry.
Find out how poorly regulated natural gas drilling contaminated local water supplies across America, and then take action to protect other at-risk communities.
Drilling processes like irresponsible hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" have led to thousands of documented cases of air and water pollution violations and human health and safety hazards.
But Congress has a chance to fix the loopholes that allow companies to inject toxic fracking chemicals into the ground by passing the Fracturing Responsibility and Awareness of Chemicals Act (FRAC ACT).
The next step is holding natural gas companies accountable to strong national and state safeguards. Tell our members of Congress to protect our air, our water, and our communities by supporting the FRAC Act.
I am proud to support Americans working hard to hold the natural gas industry to the highest set of standards. Together we can accelerate the move from dirty coal and oil to clean renewable energy and efficiency.
