Please Use Your Environmental Regulatory Powers to Maximum Capacity
 
Craft regulations that the MAJORITY of your constituents want: those that maximize environmental protections, regardless of nominal "costs." Research shows something on the order of 110:1 BENEFIT to cost ratios when examining increased environmental regulation. Increase cost to a few many times equals exponential benefit to the many!
