The attorneys general said they object to the Biden administration’s use of Title VI to “advance what it calls ‘environmental justice,’” and complained that the EPA aims to create “a condition in which no racially or economically defined group experiences adverse environmental impacts.”

And why is that bad? EPA’s whole purpose is to regulate industry so no one experiences adverse environmental impacts. They often don’t get it right, but they’re doing more than most. I don’t understand why these AGs and governors hate their constituents so much.

henfredemars,

My roommate went on to work for environmental protection eventually reporting to the EPA. He left for a job with Michelin because he said it was really depressing playing Earth’s sin tax collector, putting a price on environmental damages that customers were more than happy to pay instead of actually fixing the issues.
