Questions & Answers
THE CLEAN AIR TRUST was incorporated in 1995 as a 501 (c)(4) nonprofit organization by former Senators Edmund Muskie of Maine and Robert Stafford of Vermont. The Trust was created to educate the public and policymakers about the value of the Clean Air Act, to promote effective enforcement of the Act through grassroots education, and to defend the Act against attack by special interest polluters.
Among its many accomplishments, the Trust:
Thwarted efforts by polluters to weaken the Clean Air Act by exposing the fact that Senate legislation to undermine the Act was drafted by big polluters.
Coordinated successful efforts by other health and environmental groups to press for stricter national health standards for smog and soot.
Defeated an attempt by big polluters to block cleanup of electric power plants by exposing collusion between polluters and West Virginia State officials.
Initiated efforts to promote cleaner gasoline - an initiative that will lead to significantly cleaner cars and sport utility vehicles.
Has initiated and organized a national campaign to clean up dirty diesel trucks.
Has periodically commissioned and released public opinion surveys which have demonstrated strong public support for pollution cleanup.
Has become a trusted resource for electronic and print reporters around the world.
