The first bill Trump signed into law was to allow coal waste to be dumped into our rivers.
I wonder if Mr Nutterbutter also gives insight to this guy…
The reminds me of shrub’s hydrogen-car initiative. Stop focusing on the current crisis in favor of a different problem which you also don’t intend to do anything about.
Well, since coal mining has both poisoning the water and being a significant cause of climate change covered, I guess we’re good here.
Time to rescind some more regulations.
So, if we punch you in the nose and throw you off the roof of a 50-story building, your biggest problem is nosebleed and that other concern is 50 stories away.
For a professional liar, you aren’t very good.
Pssst, coal guy, bad air affects a lot of folks drinking water as well as climate.
These clowns never cease to amaze me.
Especially their consistency!
Well, maybe in Flint.
Golly, Andrew, I expect people in leadership positions to be able to address more than one problem at a time but I may have set my sights too high. Maybe that’s only the very best and most serious people working together like a well oiled machine.
Other nations live in the world. America only lives in America.
If one considers sea waters flooding our coastal cities as unsafe to drink then he has got a point.
The obvious solution to rising sea levels is many thousands of massive coal-powered pumps to pull the water out of our cities and dump it far offshore.
North Carolina has already solved that problem. They passed a law banning the state from basing coastal policies on the latest scientific predictions of how much the sea level will rise. No regulations, no job killing governmental intrusion, no new taxes, GOP nirvana (or whatever their faux Xtian counterpart might be).
And yet I saw a guy buying several gallons of Roundup (glyphosate) at Home Depot yesterday. In Europe, that is no longer possible in some countries. Wheeler’s comment, however, is completely appropriate for Yemen, which has seen the largest cholera outbreak in the modern era and 14 million pushed to the brink of starvation. For that matter, it is sort of appropriate to Michigan, where Rick Snyder weaponized water policy against poor people.
One of the preeminent stooges of our time and a minion of Trump, who wants to bring back asbestos.
maybe they just want to privatize water rights and ownership, like in texas
The Environmental Protection Agency’s new administrator says unsafe drinking water is “probably the biggest environmental threat” the world faces.
Might his experience with problems arising from coal ash ponds, mountain top removal and what not have colored his vision?
Not that I imagine that he’ll offer even a metaphoric band aid for those.
