Public Protections From Toxic Air Contaminants Act Will Ensure Clean, Healthy Air To Breathe
“Toxic air pollutants emitted from Colorado industrial facilities put workers and our community at risk of cancer and serious health impacts, such as difficulty breathing, nausea, birth defects, or even death, said Lizeth Chacon, executive director for Colorado People’s Alliance (COPA).Coloradans don’t have the strong protections they need from toxic pollutants like benzene and formaldehyde that corporate polluters are pumping into our air, especially in communities of color. The Public Protections From Toxic Air Contaminants Act will put corporations on notice that polluting our air and endangering our health is no longer an option.
