San Francisco is about to vote on whether gasoline pumps should display a ‘climate change disclosure label’.
Why is big oil allowed to sell their product without telling people it causes global warming? Can a consumer of fossil fuels see these climate change impacts? There is a campaign happening in the Bay Area and Canada that is asking these questions; and making history.
Lisa Katovich of UC Berkeley radio KALX interviews Jamie Brooks of Think Beyond the Pump. It’s our everyday consumption of fossil fuels that drive future climate change. Gasoline consumption is a problem of hidden risk, and human beings can’t respond to risks they can’t see. ‘Warming Labels’ at the pump would close this experiential gap between cause and effect in our everyday use of petroleum-based transportation fuels (the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States).
