📌Today, we released our first-ever comprehensive workplan on the Endangered Species Act🐻🐢🐟 – so we can address the longstanding challenge of protecting endangered species from pesticides, while supporting sustainable agriculture. https://t.co/KsjF762xGw — PolitiTweet.org

Our role in implementing the ESA is around registering pesticides. We must ensure the use of pesticides isn't likely to jeopardize listed species or destroy their critical habitat, without placing unnecessary burden on farmers & other pesticide users. 📷Black-footed ferret kits. https://t.co/O61BtxTxUv — PolitiTweet.org

In 1973, Congress passed the #EndangeredSpeciesAct with the purpose of protecting and recovering species and their ecosystems that are in danger of becoming extinct. At EPA, we work with @USFWS and @NOAA to implement key portions of the law. 🐻🐟🐢 📷Puerto Rican parrot, USFWS https://t.co/IR5UxPhGCU — PolitiTweet.org

We’re tackling the decades-old challenge of protecting endangered species from pesticides, while also providing ppl w/safe, affordable food & protection from pests. Species from the Poweshiek skipperling 🦋to bog turtles will benefit from our new workplan. https://t.co/FvMIvBsRc7 https://t.co/Z34rbGcyI2 — PolitiTweet.org

Q: What do the rusty-patched bumble bee🐝 & Attwater’s prairie chicken🐤 have in common? A: Both are protected under the #EndangeredSpeciesAct & will greatly benefit from EPA’s new workplan to protect endangered species from pesticides, while improving certainty for farmers. https://t.co/n6RLxKvWyx — PolitiTweet.org

EPA’s new Clean School Bus Program will fund the replacement of existing school buses with clean and zero-emission models over the next five years, resulting in lower exposure to diesel emissions and a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions: https://t.co/O9ZwUJYCvx https://t.co/GT8hCsCucM — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

In 2021, EPA strengthened greenhouse gas emission standards for passenger cars and light trucks, which will improve public health, reduce climate pollution, and save drivers money at the pump: https://t.co/XuCUEZK2ZD https://t.co/Rq6nQrvVHd — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

In March we proposed stronger emissions standards for heavy-duty vehicles. This would result in widespread #AirQuality improvements and ensure the vehicles that connect American commerce are as clean as possible: https://t.co/eixybbu2jO https://t.co/c79Wxsv4lH — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

To combat climate change, EPA measures emissions data, reduces emissions through regulatory actions and partnerships, and conducts research: https://t.co/mb9RhTvl4u https://t.co/6waVW1nKyH — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

We also regulate emissions of carbon dioxide and other long-lived greenhouse gases that contribute to #climatechange and cause more intense and frequent heat waves that disproportionately affect the poor and elderly. #NPHW — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

As part of National Public Health Week, we’re talking about air pollution today. EPA regulates common air pollutants, like fine particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide – which can cause harmful health effects. — PolitiTweet.org

Before you enjoy the great outdoors this season, make sure to use EPA registered insect repellents to protect yourself and your family from ticks and other bad bugs. https://t.co/MXthCCpsyl — PolitiTweet.org

They say April showers bring May flowers, but due to #ClimateChange, many areas have seen widespread changes in #Weather patterns and their environment. Long-term changes can affect us in ways you may not expect. Learn more ➡️ https://t.co/s9snvypn2e #EarthMonth https://t.co/5yDJPKyvtY — PolitiTweet.org

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law provides $3.5 billion to help clean up polluted Superfund sites in communities across the country, and provides funding for a backlog of 49 previously unfunded sites. https://t.co/qSr2ju0r3x — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

In March, EPA added 12 sites to the Superfund National Priorities List and proposed to add another 5, with 2/3 of these sites located near overburdened or underserved communities. These sites are prioritized in cleanup funding and enforcement actions: https://t.co/kjFw3V8N21 — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

Contaminants at Superfund sites can range from lead to asbestos to radiation and can pose a health risk to people who live, work, or play by these sites. Cleaning up these sites prevents or reduces these risks. https://t.co/6gxkpJEvL2 — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

One public health topic we want to talk about is Superfund. The Superfund law allows EPA to clean up contaminated sites with the aim of protecting human health and the environment. #NPHW https://t.co/7ixkW2JhAk — PolitiTweet.org

Empowering, revitalizing, and investing in communities – now that’s something to celebrate! 🎉 Check out our brownfields program accomplishments: https://t.co/fNEeyPZr9r — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is providing historic funding to brownfields revitalization projects. This will help communities address the economic, social, and environmental challenges caused by brownfields. https://t.co/rVrSAuw3dT — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

It’s important for communities to understand and be involved in brownfields reuse, so we provide funding to orgs to provide training and technical assistance for communities to help address their brownfields challenges: https://t.co/cDWcZvOCU3 https://t.co/2WhO8FIJS3 — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

A brownfield is a property where the redevelopment or reuse is complicated by the presence of health hazards, like groundwater contamination or toxic waste. Our program empowers communities to work together and safely clean up these spaces. — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. EPA @EPA

How are brownfields connected to #PublicHealth? Besides posing risk of contamination, sites may also pose safety risks and reduce quality of life for those nearby: https://t.co/cz6Cmt09hN Here’s how EPA is helping 👇 #NPHW https://t.co/4mzmfVVedo — PolitiTweet.org
