Guest guest Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 --- Take Action: EPA Allows Factory Farms to Pollute Date: Sat, 29 Jan 2005 02:51:32 -0800 Organization: Optimal Ways of Living To: aajonus New EPA Deal Lets Factory Farms Pollute Air without Restriction Sign Petition to EPA <http://www.organicconsumers.org/epa4.htm#factoryfarm> The day after the inauguration, January 21, the Bush Administration signed an agreement that allows factory farms to freely violate any and all clean air standards for the next two years, and forgives these same companies from paying fines for past air pollution violations. In exchange for the freedom to pollute without any restrictions, the deal " requests " that factory farms agree to monitor their air pollution and provide that data to the government. Bush's " Dirty Air " agreement is outrageous, given that the Clean Air Act already requires factory farms to provide air pollution data, while also requiring facilities to adhere to clean air standards. One of the companies that will benefit the most from this arrangement with the Bush Administration is Tyson Foods, who also happened to be one of the largest donors to the Bush inaugural festivities. Fortunately there is a 30 day public comment period, and the OCA is collecting petition signatures for submission to the EPA. Please sign the petition or make comments directly to the EPA.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 I just signed the petition. If anyone is in doubt as to who this administration has been and will protect as long as he can, I feel sorry for you. I realize half this country voted for him, but you better wake up and realize it will take more then 50 years to get the environment back to anything close to what it was before he got into office. We are all worried about being able to sell raw milk. It won't matter when no one can breath, drink the ground water or even eat what we produce ourselves. Too bad, because I love this country and all that is good in it. But, this country is based on the Constitution and the pigs in office are trying to destroy that as well. There are no rights left for us to even go to court on. K.C.
