Scorecard, produced by Environmental
Defense, provides free, easily accessible environmental information.
Simply type in a zip code to learn about environmental issues
in your county. Scorecard ranks and compares pollution in
counties across the US. Scorecard also profiles 6,800 chemicals,
making it easy to find out where they are used and how hazardous
they are.
Once you learn about an environmental problem,
Scorecard enables you to take action - you can fax a polluting
company or contact your elected officials to ask them to
address problems in your community.
