New Poll Finds Most Voters Want EPA to Limit Carbon Pollution From Power Plants

According to the results of a Sierra Club national survey released Tuesday, seven-in-ten Americans favor the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) putting limits on the amount of carbon pollution that power plants can release.?

The poll, conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research, surveyed 1,000 registered voters across the country between January 11 and 20.

By a nearly 2-to-1 margin, the voters questioned think the U.S. should be investing more in clean energy sources and energy efficiency rather than in fossil fuels.  The poll also found that a majority of voters - 58 percent - favor the U.S. setting national goals to move away from coal and other fossil fuels and replace them with clean, renewable sources by the year 2030.
