It's also an excellent time to keep our families safe from products containing harmful chemicals. Fortunately, there are safer supplies out there!

The Biden administration proposed rule changes that will roll back Trump-era restrictions that made it more difficult to participate and will include climate and environmental justice in decision-making. Urge the Biden administration to finalize the strongest possible rule to ensure that NEPA serves as a bridge, not a barrier, to a sustainable future. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=70aea25f7 bc83b99240bd3f98069f56617c7e10293eec8daa02837a3e837652beecbd4838b2c405cf11593d5cde13e6be94c8ce22ec10a9cee66ed7308750fb8> ________________________________ <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=70aea25f7bc83b9948d5e92d213ea006171d857ef498704568a3245a11a94adc46b7bdc49221a94a31422fec62e69738f537d9d71f056ef0> The Belews Creek coal plant in North Carolina. | Photo credit: Mikaela Curry/Sierra Club | Sierra Magazine | Behind Banks' Smoke Screen <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=70aea25f7bc83b99c9fb3270c737ddf8944738dc4d43245638d454808409903d75de5ab9cc668e6e2e03467a46c54ac5812bc22bac7f2064> A new report from our Fossil-Free Finance campaign reveals that major banks like Barclays, JPMorgan Chase, and Bank of America are propping up deadly coal plants across the US despite their high-profile net-zero climate commitments. The analysis reveals a massive loophole in the banks' climate commitments through continued lending for companies operating polluting coal-fired power plants.
