from Food Sleuth Radio · host Melinda Hemmelgarn

Did you know that the majority of Americans believe the burden of pollution is being shifted onto families through medical bills and long-term health consequences, and that by a 7-to-1 margin, Americans favor strengthening or expanding the EPA rather than weakening it? (See: What Americans — including Trump Supporters — Actually Want from the EPA: https://substack.com/home/post/p-200483632)  Join Food Sleuth Radio host and Registered Dietitian, Melinda Hemmelgarn for her conversation with Marc Boom, Senior Director of Public Affairs for the Environmental Protection Network, a non-partisan organization comprising more than 750 former EPA scientists, engineers and policy analysts.
