EPA poised to make changes in greenhouse gas regulation

The World

John Broder is a reporter for our partner, the New York Times and he landed one of the first interviews with Lisa Jackson, the new administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, and he joins us now to highlight some of the Obama administration’s environmental initiatives.
