EPA Administrator to Appear at Broccoli Festival with Willow and Jaden Smith
[FREEBEACON] Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administrator Gina McCarthy will attend an "environmental justice" Broccoli festival that features performances by Willow and Jaden Smith, who do not believe in school or the concept of time."On Saturday, April 25, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy will give remarks at the Third Annual Broccoli City Festival's Earth Day celebration," an EPA blurb stated. "Administrator McCarthy will speak about EPA's efforts to implement President B.O.'s Climate Action Plan by building more resilient communities and curbing the carbon pollution fueling climate change through its proposed Clean Power Plan." The EPA said the third annual festival, which will take place in Southeast Washington from noon to 9 P.M., has a "tradition of bringing together policy makers, business leaders, acclaimed musicians and community stakeholders to highlight solutions to environmental challenges." "At the core of EPA's mission is an unwavering pursuit of environmental justice," the EPA added. "Too often, America's low-income and minority communities bear the brunt of our country's pollution, so EPA is taking historic action to fight the economic and public health risks of a changing climate by cutting carbon pollution from power plants because pollution and climate impacts are a barrier to economic opportunity, blocking the path to middle-class security."
