REDUCING CARBON POLLUTION
The EPA has put into place the "Clean Power Plan" which limits the amount of emission power plants can put out. With the new plan in place, carbon emissions are expected to be cut down 30% by the year 2030.
ALTERNATIVE POWER
Under President Obama the United States have increased their alternative power sources greatly. Solar power has increased nearly ten-fold, and wind power has tripled. President Obama has helped launched over 50 wind, solar, and geothermal energy projects across the country.
