Obama delivers pep talk to EPA employees. Falls on deaf ears? ›
“”You help make sure that the air we breathe, the water we drink and the foods we eat are safe. You protect the environment not just for our children, but for their children.” The agency has unveiled a number of aggressive and in many cases expensive measures — including tough new efficiency standards for vehicles, new limits on emissions of mercury and other air toxics from power plants, and vigorous rules aimed at curbing air pollution that crosses state lines — often in the face of furious opposition from affected industries and their supporters on Capitol Hill.”

Yes, unless we vote in more progressives in Congress and participate in the Occupy movement. Political culture change a must.

I may be a little one-sided, but I think that the health of the environment and safety of factory-farmed animals should ALWAYS come first.

Question? I’d love to be EPA worker hearing this message, since everything the EPA should stand for is under siege by barbarians at the gate.
