Unless i'm totally off base, this is saying that if a new school is going to be built it must adhere to "sustainability" guidelines.

If it's an existing school it must either already comply, renovate until compliance is achieved, or face being closed.

(note the emphasis on convincing the public to accept these practices willingly throughout the text)

The vibe i'm getting is that they want to start off by using the schools as nuclei to which the surrounding communities can be "sustainably developed" via "smart growth" principles(and we know where that comes from).

What the _ _ _ _ should EPA have to do with choosing the site of a new school? Taxes for building schools come from local taxpayers, not the Feds.

As always, you give these a-holes an inch and they take a mile.

This has nothing to do with education and everything to do with destroying the rural populations of this nation.

The Department of Education and the EPA should BOTH be defunded and abolished. They are both unconstitutional.

Amazing stretch of the commerce clause in action. It’s high time to can the EPA and let states take care of themselves. Then we can move on to the Board of Education.

Memo to EPA: FU!

That’ll get me on the “terrorist” watch list and anal cavity searches, for sure.
