 Trying
Times
Well with the EPA totally screwed, deregulation on the way, and pipelines
already being constructed, it seems like President Trump is on the road to destroying our
natural resources. The days of semi clean air and water are numbered, so go out

pages. Hopefully things will get better in the coming months but change will not
come unless we fight. |
"It is horrifying that we
