U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Did you know Administrator Lisa P. Jackson has her own Facebook fan page?
I’m honored to rejoin EPA as Administrator, and very excited to be back at the agency where I first got my start. I can’t wait to see what we can get done in the years ahead. I grew up in the 9th Ward of New Orleans, went to college at Tulane Un...iversity (go Wave!) and graduated with a degree in chemical engineering. I got my masters from Princeton and joined the EPA soon after that. I’ve lived and worked in New Jersey for the last 20 years, but I’m glad to be back in DC, which was where I worked with EPA when they first hired me back in the 80s. At the heart of everything we do to protect the environment are the people who get clean water and air, and safe places to live and work. I still have a letter I got when I was Commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. It came from a woman who was fighting to get an environmental cleanup started in her neighborhood, to protect children who were getting sick from toxins in the ground and water. We helped her win that fight, and her letter – which I keep in my desk – is a constant reminder of the difference we can make. As EPA Administrator, I want to keep helping communities deal with the environmental challenges of the 21st century. I want to broaden our conversation so we can reach new people, like some of the folks I grew up with in New Orleans, who may not have talked much about environmentalism before, but certainly feel the effects of pollution and climate change. And I want to seize the opportunities for green jobs and clean energy that can get our economy moving again. But most importantly, I want to make sure that this generation does a good job of protecting the planet for the next generation – which includes my two sons. We owe it to them. I’m glad that I’m back at EPA, so that I can be part of creating a cleaner, safer world for our young people.Read More

Why is it that there is no warning for consumers about the dangers some plastics containg our foods and drinks have when exposed to certain temperatures? I know most bottles and containers have a numerical rating which points out the recommended use... for that perticular container, but still some people have no clue and reuse one time use bottles. how bout all those cases of water you see outside on display at a gas station soaking up the sun and leaching bisphenol-A into what most may precieve as a refreshing drink when chilled in a cooler packed with ice. Well, I'm no expert and would just like to know things that pertain to my health and stay as informed as possible.Read More

I would like to know why the United States Environmental Protection Agency is impeding one of the cleanest burning power plant projects in the United States. As a Navajo, and concerned citizen, I am appalled that my "Government" would try ...and push my people back into the place where we wouldn't have money, and they "the government" controlled everything. Isn't this 2009? I thought that even Pres. Barack Hussein Obama supported clean coal. On the eve, of the future, How can the EPA not approve this project. It will be a perfect example of how to start a clean burning coal power plant in the United States of America. I don't think that impeding the process will help. I will be graduating from the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, with a degree in Electrical Engineering at the end of this school year, and I am shocked to know that what I have been planning for has been blocked because of racial impedance by our own governing body.Read More

know the facts as well. They have the heaviest polluting coal burning powplant in their own back yards, and the only way to stop this violent act towards our environment is to allow the Desert Rock Project to proceed, and put these "Environment...al Criminals" out of business. Never in my life have I ever questioned the "business" mindset of an Agency for "the best interests of the people" until now. Personally I am sick of this support of a Chinese mentality, I thought this was the United States of America. Where anything is possible. We should be helping put these Environmental terrorists out of business, and not helping their cause. You people are impeding the growth of all the peoples in my area, by violating the rights to clean coal power production. You are not helping your own cause. because you are supporting the most polluting coal burning power plants in the whole United States. Congratulations on taking money from the Devil. You are now part of the "American" ideal.

For people in Jacksonville neighborhoods polluted decades ago by incinerator ash, a planned cleanup affecting thousands of properties could have a surprising benefit: jobs. A $500,000 federal grant approved this month will pay for Florida State College

Wood burning is to be discouraged not encouraged!
People should be aware of the dangers of wood smoke. Visit http://WoodBurnerSmoke.net or BurningIssues.org for more information.
Providing funds to create more toxic air pollution is just plain ridicu...lous! Why not use the money for something that makes sense? The air pollution now is incredible. Why add more???Read More
