EPA is always looking out for me and my lungs by keeping the air clean for generations to come...

It's for the children, after all.

My husband and I were talking about this last night. A terrible thing.

Sadly, there will be no calls to reform the EPA because of this, only to dump it completely. As someone who grew up near the burning river, and who has since then been able to swim in nearby Lake Erie after decades of it being a poisoned dump, I'm old enough to remember the pre-EPA days, and that would be a very, very bad thing.

I'm sure the cons on this forum will prove me right.

Reform is merely a hip buzzword in cases like this. The EPA is above the law and there's nothing you can do about it.

From the article:

"In February of 2013, JunkScience.com reported that the EPA gave USC money in the mid 2000’s to find out whether diesel exhaust could “induce reproducible gene expression” in children."

In before the OP and all other cons here accuse Obama of murdering little children.

The EPA needs to be purged from top to bottom and their reason for being reevaluated.

But the IG report is from during the Obama administration. Under THIS administration is when the EPA started misinforming people about the risks and level of pollutants they were going to be exposed to.

You're very welcome, though you asserted this in your reply so I'm merely agreeing with you.

Dupliacte thread..

EPA tested deadly pollutants on humans to push Obama admin’s agenda

...and if you read the extract from the IRB none of the 81 people tested were children.

Have a lot of problems with the truth I see.

I also love how this is terrible to do in a lab setting...but these fumes are present in every state and city across the country every day. So it's fine if children breathe it in day by day.
