Mission Statement
"The Natural ...Resource ...Development ...Committee? I don't remember what it stands for. But I'll tell you one thing. It's kick-ass because they sue the crap out of b-holes. And I support it" - Jack Black NRDC is the nation's most effective environmental action organization. With the backing of 1.2 million members, we protect human health and the environment by: 1. Taking on corporate polluters and government indifference in court; We sued the U.S. Navy and stopped them from blasting the world's marine mammals with deadly hi-frequency sonar. 2. Helping companies and institutions see the 'green' light; We've partnered with Warner Music Group to revolutionize their music label into the greenest on earth. 3. Making smart sustainable policies the law of the land; We ensured that a half million kids in California are getting tested for lead poisoning every year. No matter what the method, we do whatever it takes to protect the planet - for all of us. Join NRDC - for as little as $10 - and sue the crap out of b-holes, too.

California is denied waiver
http://www.nrdc.org/media/2008/080229.asp

Here's a link to an article about how California has been attempting to control green house gas emissions from automobiles. Under the US Clean Air Act, California must obtain what is known as a waiver (special permission) from the EPA to reduce these emissions. EPA, however, denied the waiver in December. California is now going to court to force EPA to give it the permission the state needs to regulate automobile emissions. If you feel strongly about this issue, write to your senator or congressman to press EPA to reverse this decision now!
