Subject | Please reduce air pollution! |
Comment | Hello, I am writing to support bill 375 that will result in reduced air pollution and greenhous gas emissions. I am surprised that more emphasis isn't placed on the reduction in air pollution that will result from any program to also reduce greenhouse gasses. Our air quality is horrible; asthma and other respiratory disease rates are the highest they have ever been. I am also writing to support any bill that improves bicycle friendliness. I live 1 mile from work and the commute on a bike is not safe. This is ridiculous! Anyone willing and able should be able to ride a bike to work,school or to shop. Unfortunatly, it is not safe in most places. Unless you live in Boulder or Portland, you risk your life riding your bike anywhere. Please- make it prohibitively expensive for people to drive HUGE SUVs to the grocery store, to deliver kids to school or go anywhere a SUV is not necessary. They make owning and operating any environmentally sound vehicle unsafe. The Earth is choking. Please do something! Thank you, Laura Healy |
