LWV US Position on Environment

As citizens of the world we must protect our planet from the physical, economic and public health effects of climate change while also providing pathways to economic prosperity.

Why it matters:
The preservation of the physical, chemical and biological integrity of the earth’s ecosystem is essential for maximum protection of public health and the environment. The interrelationships of air, water and land resources should  be recognized in designing environmental safeguards. The federal government should have the major role in setting standards  for environmental protection and pollution control.

What we're doing:
Since the 1960s, we have been at the forefront of efforts to protect air, land and water resources. Our approach to environmental protection and pollution control is one of problem solving. The League’s environmental goals aim to prevent ecological degradation, and to reduce and control pollutants before they go down the sewer, up the chimney or into the landfill. We support vigorous enforcement mechanisms, including sanctions for states and localities that do not comply with federal standards as well as substantial fines for noncompliance.

I believe that parents should be aware of stuff like this. We should all use whatever we have to help our child. I understand that there are people who are still skeptical when it comes to online information, but that is natural. If you can read about them, and help your child get better, then that is what you need to be doing. This is a comment that I want to share with every single parent who are in this blog.
