The blue-run city of Louisville, Colorado will ban all new gas stations as local lawmakers say they feel an 'obligation' to fight climate change.
City councilors in the town of 21,000 approved a proposal Tuesday evening to cap the number of gas stations for their constituents to just six.
A seventh station would only be permitted if a large retailer swoops in, but the limitation was praised by a Louisville legislator who said the move was necessary to combat global warming.
'We have an obligation to take every step possible to address the changes to our climate that are ravaging our planet and directly impacting the health, well-being and livelihoods of the constituents we represent in Louisville,' council member Maxine Most told Fox News.
