EPA lops airborne lead limit 90 percent

Denver Post - October 17, 2008
It is good to see that the EPA is making steps to help clean the environment by making standards more stringent. This kind of action is necessary because industries and commerce will not take the initiative to set standards higher because it is too costly for many industries. Although the cost associated with the standard change will be significant, in the billions of dollars, it helps to benefit the health of the public. I think it is fair that industries that pollute should be held responsible for cleaning what they dirtied. If it was not for dirty industries then the environment would still be relatively clean.
