Who is affected by oil and gas pollution on public lands in Utah?

  • Populations in almost one-third of Utah’s counties have air quality below EPA standards, likely due to oil and gas development.
  • The Uintah Basin in northeastern Utah, where the majority of Utah oil and gas development occurs, experiences poor air quality as a result of widespread oil and gas development.

Tell the Trump Administration that:

  • We need protect our children’s health by keeping important methane safeguards in place.
  • Air pollution from the oil and gas industry impacts over 12 million people in this country, including 3 million children.
  • Protections that require the industry to reduce methane pollution are cost effective and common sense.
  • Our health, as well as the our planet’s climate, deserves to be protected from dangerous air pollution.
