Environment Protection Authority South Australia (SA EPA)’s Post

Opposite Day: Imagine a world without the EPA 🚨 Today is Opposite Day, where we stop and think about what the world will be like if the opposite of everything happened. Let’s take a moment to think about some of the things that could happen if we didn't do our crucial work... 🧐 🔴Air pollution: There would be less regulations on emissions from industry, leading to increased pollution and a significant negative impact on our environment. 🔴Water pollution: Without the EPA, our precious rivers, lakes, and oceans could become severely impacted with industrial pollution and waste. The consequences would be devastating to natural biodiversity, agricultural productivity, tourism and community well-being. 🔴Site Contamination: Legacy site contamination issues from past industrial and waste disposal practices wouldn’t be addressed and would make land unsuitable for its use for both people and the environment now and into the future. #EPA #OppositeDay #Pollution #Waste #SiteContamination #EnvironmentProtection
