The Environmental Protection Agency is in the midst of a coup. They have designs on our liberties and economic prosperity. I say that, because this agency commissioned and published a study entitled, “Sustainability and the U.S. EPA.” at a cost of $700,000 paid for by the taxpayers. This so-called study is nothing more than a power grab. Fox News reports:
According to the Academies, the sustainability study “both incorporates and goes beyond an approach based on assessing and managing the risks posed by pollutants that has largely shaped environmental policy since the 1980s.”
It is already known in EPA circles as the “Green Book,” and is frequently compared by insiders to the “Red Book,” a study on using risk management techniques to guide evaluation of carcinogenic chemicals that the agency touts as the basis of its overall approach to environmental issues for the past 30 years.
At the time that the “Green Book” study was commissioned, in August, 2010, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson termed it “the next phase of environmental protection,” and asserted that it will be “fundamental to the future of the EPA.”
Jackson compared the new approach, it would articulate to “the difference between treating disease and pursuing wellness.” It was, she said, “a new opportunity to show how environmentally protective and sustainable we can be,” and would affect “every aspect” of EPA’s work.
According to the study itself, the adoption of the new “sustainability framework” will make the EPA more “anticipatory” in its approach to environmental issues, broaden its focus to include both social and economic as well as environmental “pillars,” and “strengthen EPA as an organization and a leader in the nation’s progress toward a sustainable future.”
You ask how the Obama apparatchiks plan on implementing these policies. Earlier this year, administrator Lisa P. Jackson requested a whopping 230,000 new EPA bureaucrats to rule over us all. Americans for Prosperity reported:
In a court filing last week, EPA quantified the vast new army of federal bureaucrats it will need to process millions of new permits under the Prevention of Significant Deterioration and Title V permitting process. A shocking 230,000 new EPA bureaucrats at a cost of $21 billion -- more than tripling the EPA's total budget. In the filing EPA says it will reach these levels by April 30, 2016.
Based on the historical relationship between the number of federal regulators and private sector employment recently quantified by the Phoenix Center the addition of 230,000 federal bureaucrats would destroy 22.5 million private sector jobs.
The EPA is in league with the United Nations. The sustainability development project is the central topic in their next global summit meeting being held in Rio de Janeiro next June. Let’s hope that’s as far as their Marxist ambitions go.
