Dirty dairying, effluent disposal, chemical pollution. All these environmental harms are supposed to policed by the Resource Management Act (RMA). But the RMA doesn’t stop pollution: it licenses it.
So too does the American EPA. (Only it doesn’t just license pollution—it pollutes waterways itself!)
But long before we had the RMA and Americans had the EPS, pollution was controlled by the common law, and had done successfully for several hundred years.. Here’s a quick video explanation. It’s American-based, so it talks EPA. And it’s short—so even Americans can understand it. So you should have no problems at all.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
