Environmental Laws: Summaries of Statutes Administered by the Environmental Protection Agency

‘Government by the people, for the people, and of the people’? But the people, in one public opinion poll after another, reaffirm their avid support of protection of the environment. Fools they are, for their government is powered by special interests who reap massive profits from the exploitation of the environment and in turn contribute to the two large political parties supporting such essential functions as forty-million dollar inaugural balls. Critics say that the environment has no more chance then a snowball in hell. But then there is an EPA which exists anyway as a fig leaf for government leaders as well as to swing wildly at windmills. This book summarises the laws which the EPA is somehow supposed to administer.
