Livestock and Pollution

Dare I say it? Sure. This is BULLSHIT! Those of us who happen to live in the areas near these horrific facilities at least deserve the same protections against pollution that our city cousins get in downtown LA ....

Proposal Would Ease Rules of Livestock Farm Pollution. The E.P.A. has been privately negotiating with large industrial livestock farms to offer them amnesty from the Clean Air Act and existing Superfund laws. By Jennifer 8. Lee. [New York Times: NYT HomePage]

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
