Alex Merced on Environment

 

 


Abolish the EPA; rely on technological innovation instead

Q: Do you support or oppose "EPA regulations are too restrictive"?

A: Abolish the EPA; technology constantly improves and with that environmental impact. Allows savings and investment to turn into innovation and the environment will be better off. Instead the EPA once again sets standards that make innovation more difficult to achieve.
