Answer:
Global warming pollution and climate change harm Maine people, wildlife, and our environment. Find out what NRCM is doing—and what you can do—to help reduce global warming pollution and climate change and advocate for clean, healthy air in Maine.
What is Global Warming?
Global warming, also known as climate change, is caused by a blanket of pollution that traps heat around the earth. This pollution comes from cars, factories, homes, and power plants that burn fossil fuels such as oil, coal, natural gas, and gasoline. Global warming pollution knows no boundaries. It enters the atmosphere, spreads across the globe, and traps heat around the earth for 50-200 years after it is emitted. That is why we need to reduce global warming pollution now, because our children, and their children, will still feel the effects of global warming for years to come. Currently, the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are at their highest levels in hundreds of thousands of years.
Maine Climate Council Key to Bold Climate Action
The Maine Climate Council (MCC) is developing a new statewide Climate Action Plan that will help build a healthier Maine, strengthen our economy, and protect the way of life we all cherish. Our recent poll showed 76% of Mainers support keeping the work of the Climate Council a top priority, even during the pandemic. NRCM’s advocates are working with many of the Climate Council’s Working Groups to develop strong recommendations for the Action Plan.
The Natural Resources Council of Maine and other environmental groups recently hosted a webinar featuring Maine Climate Council members called "Maine Climate Council: Everything You Need to Know.” If you missed the webinar, you can watch it on NRCM's YouTube channel: The Maine Climate Council — Everything You Need to Know.
Visit our blog to learn more about what the Climate Council has been up to and how you can get involved in making sure Maine acts as a leader, by showing others how to transition to a clean energy economy with a strong Climate Action Plan that builds a better future for Maine.
How Does Climate Change Affect Maine?
Among the highest rates of childhood asthma in the nation, rising seas and severe storms battering our coastal homes and towns, warming and more acidic oceans threatening fisheries, too many “bad air days,” more and more tick-borne diseases, threats to our fall foliage and winter tourism industries—these are among the many health, environmental, and economic problems climate change pollution is causing here in Maine.
Burning fossil fuels contributes to other air pollution such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, mercury, and other air toxics, and they create a host of other problems, including unhealthful smog and soot; mercury contamination of Maine people, waters and wildlife; and acid rain and ocean acidification.
