EPA in cahoots with Big Agriculture industry to poison Gulf of Mexico with agricultural chemicals
‘The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) is asking a federal appeals court in New Orleans to vacate an order that forces the agency to rule on whether federal regulations are necessary to curb the flow of pollutants – mostly from agricultural run-off – into the Mississippi River.
The pollutants, reports the New Orleans Times-Picayune newspaper, are major contributors to a low-oxygen “dead zone” that forms along the Louisiana coastline every spring, as farmers up-river plant crops throughout the Midwest.’
