EPA Mid-Atlantic Environment Matters Podcasts
Summary: EPA's Mid-Atlantic Region named its new series of podcasts "Environment Matters" carefully, hoping that listeners would agree that "matters" is both a noun and a verb. The audio and, now, video series includes topics as diverse as consumer and health tips, how EPA uses sound science to make decisions, recognition of exemplary environmental protection, and things we all can do to improve the environment. Audio podcasts will be produced as often as weekly, but more typically twice each month as we slowly begin to add video.
