EPA Closes Its Libraries, Destroys Documents
Further to: EPA Will Use Poor Kids as Guinea Pigs to Test Toxic Chemicals ... here are some more shenanigans to conveniently bury evidence that could be used against industrial environmental assaults - this originated in Dec. 2006 yet not to strangely the mainstream news is mum on the issue. Such behavior is akin to the barbaric book and/or library burnings yet an outcry was and is nearly completely prevented - simply by withholding this information in a timely manner - such is the power of the media. While a bit late we can still take action and educate others as per the following....

Promoting Openness, Full Disclosure, and AccountabilityFYI
The Alliance for Human Research Protection joins the effort of Union of Concerned Scientists to stop Stephen Johnson and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency from engaging in irresponsible conduct--much like marauders--who have embarked on destroying valuable data!
This is tantamount to Book Burning that the Nazis engaged in to eliminate from the public record information they did not want YOU or future generations to know.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maintains a nationwide network of 27 libraries that provide critical scientific information on human health and environmental protection, not only to EPA scientists, but also to other researchers and the general public. The EPA libraries are located in each of 10 regions of the country, at EPA headquarters in Washington, D.C. and at various EPA laboratories specializing in certain aspects of environmental protection.

WHERE IS THE FREE PRESS???????? Where are the Congressional whores?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The EPA Closes Its Libraries, Destroys Documents The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has begun closing its nationwide network of scientific libraries, effectively preventing EPA scientists and the public from accessing vast amounts of data and information on issues from toxicology to pollution. Several libraries have already been dismantled, with their contents either destroyed or shipped to repositories where they are uncataloged and inaccessible.
Members of Congress have asked the EPA to cease and desist. Please call EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson at (202) 564-4700 and tell him that scientists and the public should retain access to this information. Urge him to immediately halt the dismantling of the library system until Congress approves the EPA budget and all materials are readily available online. Please Note: We've received reports that some EPA receptionists are denying closing the libraries and destroying documents, telling UCS supporters that UCS is spreading misinformation, and claiming that they are simply restructuring and modernizing the system. They're also saying that it is more effective to call Congress about this issue. Click here for evidence of why these arguments don't hold water.
