I agree! I don't think environmentalists are marginalized only the
cor****ation media types want us to be. It is their job similar to the
adage I was just following orders comes to mind.
The current media won't ask or re****t on this. Our state school
curriculum is of scientific sleep too. Not everyone however.
I wonder if any high school student ever discusses the merits and
foibles of
<http://www.ucsusa.org/>
From the above URL
"The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was founded with the
simple yet profound charge "to protect human health and the
environment." Yet a new UCS survey of scientists at the agency reveals
that challenges from industry lobbyists and some political leaders have

Interference at the EPA, we propose steps to ensure the integrity of
future agency research."
