Abstract
This video considers the dangerous implications of recent proposals to roll back Environmental Protection Agency regulations, including the Clean Water Act, the ELG Rule, the Coal Ash Disposal, the Air Toxic Standards Rule, the Greenhouse Gas Rule, the Oil and Gas Methane Rule, the Chemical Disaster Rule, and the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Ozone. The author asserts that the American public cannot wait for legislators with competing political agendas to pass environmental protections. Institutions of higher learning can play a crucial role in promoting environmental awareness and activism through curriculum and degree-granting programs that focus on sustainability.
