Do any of you know that you CAN file an online complaint to EPA about firewood smoke ?

If any of you do not like firewood smoke or anything like burning garbage or hate crime activities used by your neighbors against you , you can file an online complaint to the EPA... It is about time EPA start paying close attention to neighborhood activities that poison the air and harm neighbors targeted or not. Do not worry about whether EPA will do something or not which is STILL unlikely until enough of you in numbers ALREADY file complaints that EPA can no longer ignore .. Your local cops will not help you with that untili it is written in their books... We can make EPA and similar authorities see that there is real problems with air pollution in neighborhoods that warrants training local cops to understand better about what is really going on.. It is your civic duty to inform EPA about real threats from neighbors who fool around with air quality for whatever reasons but mostly hate activities ... My neighbor is using such activities against me for years but cops cannot help me because the fumes disspate too quickly for the cops to come to smell it. If you suspect similar activities that threaten your health and well being, I urge you to notify EPA .. Dont worry about the results... JUST NOTIFY EPA, the more you notify EPA they will bo coerced to do something ...

    uh...my neighbors use wood to HEAT their homes. They would laugh at me, you and the EPA; then set fire to my house.

    Reasonable is the key word here.

    Firewood smoke isn't regulated by utilising the EPA or the different business enterprise, besides the shown fact that it feels like there is something happening. Why could all and sundry desire to conceal firewood smoke by utilising emitting it underground if it somewhat is not unlawful? i do no longer think of it somewhat is firewood smoke. you may desire to touch your state's branch of environmental risk-free practices (<-- won't be the best call. each and every state has a tendency to have a distinctive call for an identical business enterprise) and request/call for that somebody pop out and look into the smoke coming by using cracks on your backyard.

    First, I'd like to say that I am a liberal who is concerned about the environment I live in.

    Second, I'd like to say that EPA has FAR bigger fish to fry than someone burning firewood in their own fireplace.

    You know why.... because IT IS NOT ILLEGAL... and therefore cannot be punished... or stopped by EPA.

    Got any more ways to pointlessly waste time that you would like to share?
