Today is World Day of Social Justice 🌍
At Mothers & Others For Clean Air, we know social justice includes clean air.
Air pollution hits marginalized communities hardest raising illness & healthcare costs.
A just clean energy transition must protect and benefit everyone.
Data centers power our digital world, but they are also creating noise pollution in our communities. Backup generators and the constant hum of cooling systems are noisy enough to disrupt sleep, raise anxiety, and trigger headaches for nearby residents.
We spend 90% of our time indoors so indoor air quality matters. But air fresheners, candles & some cleaners can release harmful chemicals that irritate skin & lungs.
Skip the scents and open your windows instead! 🪟🍃

The EPA plans to stop measuring the value of health benefits when setting pollution standards. Instead, it will prioritize how much it costs for major polluters to curb their emissions.
The message couldn’t be clearer: industrial polluters have higher priority than our health.
