Pollution

The Obama administration has been fighting against the republicans. The Republicans are trying to permanently stop the environment protection agency from regulating greenhouse gas emissions. The President Budget proposal for the Environmental Protection Agency was about $46 million to enact new regulation that would come down on the greenhouse gas emissions. The republicans say that the Environmental Protection Agency is over stepping the bounds. They propose that they cut $3 billion out of Environmental Protection Agency budgets. On the other hand white house proposed 1.3. The head of Environmental Protection Agency says if the Government cuts their budgets that it would hurt America as a whole. She says that all part of life would be affected: hunting, fishing, asthma attacks, heart attacks, and so on. This to me is a big problem. It also makes me feel uneasy that part of our government doesn’t care what happens to our environment that we live off of. I feel that our government show put more concern on the environment than making money. People in California have already seen the up side to Environmental Protection Agency. People their now say that they can see the mountains. Before it was so much smuck in the air blocking the view of the mountains. I hope that the EPA keeps fighting these environmental battles. Because if they weren’t who know what our world would be like today. That should be on the top of the things to do list. Considering that we are already having global warming.
