  2. “E.P.A. is at the center of the bullseye for President Trump’s vindictive purge of public servants,” said Michelle Roos, calling it “the most chaotic and vindictive transition in the history of the Environmental Protection Agency.”

    “Many had been hired to work on programs that Congress created through two recent laws, doing things like helping communities replace lead pipes, mediating toxic sites and funding clean energy projects aimed at reducing the greenhouse gas emissions that are heating the planet.”

  4. I hope they stay strong and don’t leave. We need them now more than ever.

  7. Environmentalist voters are less likely to vote than the average voter.

  9. The climate will continue to change more rapidly than natural change whatever Drumpf and his lackeys do. In “Climate vs. Donald J. Trump”, climate will win.

  10. Good. Burn it all down. Set some fires, spill toxic waste, since they want that. And in red states.

  12. This is BS why is anyone heeding this illegal orders? Push back. Don’t make it easy.

  15. Id just keep on my work till they hand me my papers, no point being scared of them they just want to use that leverage to stop people from being productive 

  17. The right answer is “make me”.

    No obeying in advance.

  18. Something something cancel culture and going after people you disagree with and making them lose their job and entire livelihood.
