EPA forced to close library

The Bush administration again demonstrates its distaste for anything educational.

Funding for one of the EPA's libraries has been cut by the current budget by 90%!

At the same time, Bush is increasing funding for research. “How are EPA scientists supposed to engage in cutting edge research when they cannot find what the agency has already done?” asked PEER Executive Director Jeff Ruch, noting that EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson is moving to implement the proposed cuts as soon as possible. “The President’s plan will not make us more competitive if we have to spend half our time re-inventing the wheel.”
