We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Environmental Defense Action Network.

The short explanation of this alert was:
The dirtiest diesels are not big-rig trucks and buses. Instead, they are engines used in construction, mining, farming, and commercial equipment -- so-called "nonroad" engines. The toxic brew of soot and chemicals they release into the air are linked to lung cancer, asthma attacks, and other respiratory ailments. Fortunately, the US EPA recently proposed new regulations to slash air pollution from dirty nonroad diesel machines. If fully implemented, these regulations could reduce as much air pollution as removing 90% of today's cars and heavy-duty trucks from the road. Industry challenges are sure to come, so we need your help. Send a message to EPA supporting its proposed rule to cut air pollution from nonroad heavy equipment. Ask the agency to hold the line on this major breakthrough for clean air and public health. Support Clean Diesel Now!
