Villain of the environment. (Letters to the Editor).


Secretary of the Interior Gale Norton Gale Ann Norton (born March 11, 1954) served as the 48th United States Secretary of the Interior from 2001 to 2006 under President George W. Bush. She was the first woman to hold the position.  ("Unwise Use: Gale Norton's New Environmentalism environmentalism, movement to protect the quality and continuity of life through conservation of natural resources, prevention of pollution, and control of land use. ," by David Helvarg, June issue) is the blatant villain of environmental destruction. Our environment is not a toy to be played with; it's our life blood. Norton and her ilk think of it only in terms of how our corporations can make more profits. Thanks to Norton, Bush's environmental record is a tragedy.

Bob Bates Bates   , Katherine Lee 1859-1929.
