Why Fossil Fuels Need to Go

From extracting the fuel from the earth to burning the fuel for energy, the process of fossil fuels wreaks havoc on the environment. 
Did you know ...
  • ​The practice of Hydraulic Fracturing is exempt from EPA regulations on the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, and Safe Water Drinking Act.
  • Plastic is made from petroleum, a fossil fuel, and plastic products can take over 450 years to fully decompose.
