We need to talk about the impacts of air pollution.

The windows in my room just faced another brick building. There was never much to see other than the sunlight peeking through the shades. I'd sit in my room and tune out the sounds from outside the window. The voices of mothers yelling at their kids, neighbors blasting music, the beeping of car horns, oh and I almost forgot the movement of the train on the tracks.

I never really noticed the train moving swiftly on the tracks down the street from my house, I guess it became a part of the daily routine. What I did notice was the deep breaths my brother would take as if something heavy was

The Need for Clean Air and Clean Energy at Home

Our homes are supposed to be safe places for our families. However, right in the heart of our homes, stoves are emitting gasses such as benzene and methane, which worsen indoor air quality, harm our health, and contribute to climate change.

The Home Is Where The Pipeline Ends study made it clear that gas is not a clean fuel. Unfortunately, people of color are the most vulnerable to air pollution; Black and brown children in Massachusetts are at high risk of developing or worsening respiratory illnesses such as asthma. To protect our families, we need public health legislation, and strict

Clean Water 50 Stories: Roger Smith

To celebrate Clean Water Action's 50th anniversary, we’re sharing our history and journey with the people who have joined us along the way as we worked to protect clean water through #CleanWater50 stories.

Roger Smith joined Clean Water Action's Connecticut team in 2003, shortly after our big win of the Sooty Six Campaign to shut down dirty power plants in the state. He played a pivotal role to further advocate for clean, renewable energy policy at the local level, leading the Neighbor to Neighbor Energy Challenge that helped municipal leaders and residents in fourteen towns with energy

The Water Impacts of CO2-EOR

To stave off the worst effects of the climate crisis, the global and U.S. economies need to decarbonize as fast as possible. Capturing carbon emissions from industrial sources and pulling carbon out of the air via direct air capture are technologies we will likely need in our toolbox if we are to achieve net zero or negative greenhouse gas emissions.

The problem is that the only existing market for captured carbon is enhanced oil recovery (CO 2-EOR ). Enhanced recovery is a commonly used form of oil production that involves injecting fluids underground to make oil and gas flow to the surface
