Ooops!
In its haste to jump-start “shovel-ready” stimulus projects, the Obama administration allowed many of the biggest polluters in the nation to sidestep key environmental regulations. The federal government made a stunning 179,000 “categorical exclusions” that allowed corporations — many with disastrous environmental records — to use stimulus funding to sponsor projects without submitting them to review under the nation’s “most basic form of environmental oversight”, a new report from the Center for Public Integrity found.
Making matters worse, many of these projects were approved under the auspices of being ‘green’ or clean energy projects (many more are transportation-related) — thus helping to comprise the billions of dollars in funding for green projects that sent progressives’ hearts aflutter two years ago. This all serves to raise questions about the efficacy of these ‘green’ stimulus projects, and whether many are in the end actually increasing environmental welfare.
Kidding? Wish it was a big joke. Trying to solve one issue they destroy another.
