Miss Sustainable
Continued from previous page
ington Post-ABC news poll
released yesterday in light of
the new EPA Clean Power
Plant Proposed Rule (http://
www2.epa.gov/carbon-pollu-
tion-standards/clean-power-
plan-proposed-rule) to reduce
carbon pollution from power
plants gave me hope that
Americans are starting to see
the light when it comes to cli-
mate change. It's good to have
hope in humanity.
Now we need to just start see-
ing the people. The people with
faces and names. The human
faces of climate change.
I truly believe if we can learn
to look out for each other – our
fellow humans – caring for our
planet comes naturally. We
shouldn't live in a world where
dying from heat is even an op-
tion.
Please think about this as you
travel throughout your days
and lives. Have kindness and
empathy for those around you.
Give someone the gift of an
umbrella or a drink of water, or
even a smile.
