Yesterday, the U.S. House passed 2 bills, HR 205 and HR1941, which block offshore drilling. One is for the Gulf of Mexico, and one is for the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts. These bills will keep fossil energy in the ground, and keep our air cleaner and help address climate change. They will also protect coastal tourism and communities, and protect marine wildlife.
In order to promote energy independence, we need more clean energy, not more fossil fuels which ruin our health, kill people, and contribute to climate change.
