The EPA’s Board needs an additional environmentalist
Dear Editor,
Exxon had to unwillingly add an environmentalist perspective to its Board in order for the public’s best interest to be clearly voiced and considered in the company’s decision-making. The board of the EPA would also benefit from such a presence. Someone who brings a pragmatic consideration of the environment and helps decisions be made with the safety of our biosphere in mind. Two strong candidates come to mind, Mrs. Janki and Mrs. Mangal Joly. They have both shown an interest in being part of a holistic solution within the Oil Sector, and they have been proposing a thorough review of the impact on the environment before green lighting a project. CRG supports having these two names considered for such a role on the EPA’s Board if these two highly educated ladies are willing.
Exxon has proven to the world that although they speak of good intentions, the risk reward curve can lead to disastrous outcomes. Helping Exxon and Our Government maintain an objective perspective when making decisions in the Oil Sector is in everyone’s best interest.
Best regards,
Mr. Jamil Changlee
Chairman
