Environmental Investigative Reporting

Mon Nov 21, 2005 at 08:26:17 PM PDT

Just discovered a great site with extensive, exhaustively-researched but very punchy, readable, and hard-hitting reporting on environmental corruption:

The Environmental Working Group

They cover the Pombo amendment (which passed! Auugh!), a frightening story of chemical and fast-food corporations allowing known-hazardous chemicals into burger wrappers, water and farm subsidy shenanigans, etc.

Their research looks first-rate. This is the kind of stuff I'd expect a real newspaper to do; alas we don't have any of those in this country, but luckly groups like EWG are on the job.

Highly recommended.
