...want to show that in a number of ways. The EPA is much broader than climate, though that's clearly an important issue. We have to get back to the basics. The Clean Air Act means that we have an obligation to address air pollution in this country, and we still have some significant challenges there. The Clean Water Act means we need clean water, and right now there are parts of the country where the water isn't getting cleaner, where people rightfully don't know who to turn to in terms of the chemicals that are used here...
