Contact: WildEarth Guardians

DENVER-WildEarth Guardians and Natural Resources Defense Council today released a fact sheet detailing the impacts of oil and gas drilling to clean air in the Rocky Mountain West.

“Smoggier skies, hazier vistas, and toxic fumes are just some of the myriad impacts oil and gas drilling is having on our clean air here in the Rocky Mountain West,” said Jeremy Nichols, Director of WildEarth Guardians’ Climate and Energy Program. “This fact sheet will help put this growing problem into perspective as we tackle ill-conceived oil and gas drilling.”
