You can get involved to help EPA set higher air quality standards when it comes to industrial boilers and incinerators. It's always something. And turns out millions of Americans live near out-dated, dirtier than necessary, incinerators. But we can tell the EPA that YES! we want better equipment installed that will insure less toxic air swirls into our atmosphere and lungs.
We can give these businesses three years to comply with better equipment/controls. Sounds like job creation and better human health, if you ask me.
