Dangerous Libraries

In advance of our free showing of The Future of Food, you may be interested to learn about what is going on at the Environmental Protection Agency's libraries.

Originally, these libraries were set up to track and provide information to the public about the newest chemicals and pesticides being developed and marketed throughout the world.

But it turns out that many of these libraries were shut down recently (later to be restored by the newly-elected congress in 2007)--but the EPA's newest chemical library will not be reopened.

So why won't it be re-opened? Who would benefit from it being closed?

We wonder...
