The EPA and Covid-19
04/25/20 at 15:20:19

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/news/2017/03/how-trump-is-changing-science...

There could be unintended consequences of Trump's gutting of the EPA, in his mind some polluted rivers or polluted air is worth it because money.

But wait... new research has confirmed by blind testing that CoV-Sars-2 could possibly be carried by particles of air pollution. This has been proffered as a reason why more polluted parts of Italy have a higher incidents of Covid-19 it is not yet fully established but it just goes to show how it's never a good idea to risk the environment for $$$'s.

Coronavirus detected on particles of air pollution...

Meaningless as that crap is.. you assume and talk and youre Hilariously nearly always WRONG

China virus is cleaning up centuries of pollution. That's atleast 1 benefit that China has given us.
If we ever go back to driving every day to work and if we ever revert to our bad habits - I'll blame AOC and Greta Tunberg.

She was a shreiking pretty shrew and a shreiking fugly child - and they both have been oddly quiet about the 1000's of leatherback turtles hatching all over beaches in south east asia and the clear waters in Venice and the disappearing red blob of toxic crap over china and the dust clouds in India vanishing in 1 month of shutdown. If those fools now come out after this crap and say go by bus and train and buy tesla cars - they don't deserve our attention.

Like I have always said - I'll give them the science - I don't agree with the solution. Its designed to cause 300X the pain and make pollution worse. Not better.

Cool.

Are you talking about the one where they dumped 3 million gallons of highly Toxic water in ?

Are you talking about the one that they killed all the wildlife that used that Toxic water ?

Are you talking about the one that all the ranchers had to Fence their livestock FROM ?

Are you talking about the one, which in decades from now the water may look clear, but when the bottom is disturbed, it will bring up all those highly toxic metals ?

Are you talking about the river the EPA KILLED, THEN SAID, 'OPPS' ?

That's Trumps fault also ?

NOw, NOw! MnSpring, whats the matter with YOU!?
The EPA Protects the environment. Says so, RIGHT in their name, so,, they are The Good GUys,, and they never tried to tell a rancher where to put a pond for his cows, or not, or which ones he cant fill in to make his cattle move to another area.. OHH NO,, They should Only GROW, never shrink, because they are Doing the Work of Gawd!
