Protecting the Environment
Only relatively recently has the federal government justified
intervention into economy to protect the environment.
Beginning in the 1960’s Americans began to express concern
about the impact of industrial growth on their nation and the world.
Engine exhaust from automobiles on the roads was blamed for the
appearance of «smog» and other forms of air pollution in large ci-
ties. Many environmentalists openly suggested that some economic
growth would have to be decreased in order to protect the environ-
ment. Soon much legislation was passed to control pollution.
In a major achievement for environmentalists, the U.S. Envi-
ronmental Protection Agency (EPA) was established in December
1970.
The EPA’s mandate is to control pollution in air and water, as
well as, pollution due to solid wastes, pesticides, noise and radiation.
The agency has the authority to coordinate and support researches
and antipollution efforts of State and local governments, private
and public groups, and educational institutions.

173
Regional EPA offices develop and implement regional pro-
grams for environmental protection activities and as a result there
is a great reduction in all categories of air pollution.
