A far better opening sentence would be:"The nation’s top environmental agency, the E. P. A. created by President Richard Nixon in 1970,  is still reeling from the exodus..."I think it is insulting and displaying a lack of gratitude to not thank and acknowledge the President who created the E. P. A.   Nixon's Democratic predecessor Pres. Johnson could have done so, but did not.  It was President Nixon who had the foresight and leadership to create the E. P. A..  If it hadn't been for Nixon, who knows how many years it might have been before the E. P. A. was started?The most important thing that the Federal Govt and Biden should be doing is to phase out the remaining coal-powered electric power plants that generate 1/5 of our electricity replacing them with natural gas and other sources of power by 2030.For some reason NY State where I live has shut down our non-polluting Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant, replacing it with greenhouse gas-generating natural gas electricity, but President Biden refuses to show leadership by shutting down the polluting coal power plants.The PM 2.5 particular matter belched from these coal-powered electric power plants that can travel for long distances affects not only those with asthma but also the elderly exacerbating their heart disease and premature deaths.
