The debate concerning the global warming is still very 'hot' but for me the important thing is not to be able to prove that humans are causing the global warming, the important thing is to realize and admit that the way we live does not promote good health, a clean environment and good living conditions for other living species. This is enough for me to make me act in one way or another, even though my contribution is small. Gunnar Bjurs sesli siteler
Of course these issues are very important to EPA and all of us but I believe they should have thought much earlier about them refrigerator water filters.
Its really heartening that the EPA is finally sitting up and doing something about Coal Ash Rule though it is disappointing that it is coming way too late(one and a half years late, in fact!!) It is worrying that it is after so many times of visits to government offices and the White House that they finally were able to make them see reason where we would have expected it to have been the other way round with the authorities' taking the initiative!! Anyway, thank God it is finally coming into force!!Refrigerator Filters
As living in another country, I would however like to add my voice to this specific cause.
The environmental issues and the consequences of our use of coal or other CO2-producing energies, does concern the whole planet.

Good digging!
According to the EPA page linked in your article:
"Children's Health
This rule is likely to address an adverse impact on childhood lifestages, including prenatal (via exposure to women of childbearing age). The potential adverse impacts are expected to be due to exposure and toxicity. ("Exposure" means children and/or women of childbearing age are more likely to be highly exposed than other lifestages. "Toxicity" means the developing fetus, infants, and/or children are more likely to have an adverse response than adult lifestages.)
Environmental Justice
This rulemaking involves a topic that is likely to be of particular interest to or have particular impact upon minority, low-income, tribal, and/or other disadvantaged populations ..."
There is also a contact page. The public may contact the EPA and make a comment about the rule.
