 **Episode Title: "EPA Under Fire: Lee Zeldin's Controversial Reforms"**

**Episode Description:**

Tune into this gripping episode of The Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Podcast, where host Mortimer delves into the tumultuous changes sweeping through the EPA under the leadership of Administrator Lee Zeldin. Appointed by President Trump, Zeldin is at the center of a storm, enacting major reforms including the dismantling of the EPA’s Office of Research and Development, reportedly eliminating nearly 4,000 jobs to boost efficiency and save taxpayer dollars. But how do these decisions impact the agency's mission and the nation's environmental future?

Explore the intense debate ignited by Zeldin's actions, with insights from key figures like California's Secretary for Environmental Protection, Yana Garcia, and former EPA program leader, Kris Thayer, who highlight the potential risks to scientific credibility and public health protection.

Discover the wider implications of the Zeldin-led move to repeal the EPA’s “Endangerment Finding,” a cornerstone of former President Obama’s climate policy. We discuss the polarizing reactions that could reshape America's fight against greenhouse gas emissions.

Amidst this controversy, Zeldin scores a diplomatic win by brokering an agreement with Mexico to resolve the Tijuana River sewage crisis. Hear contrasting views on whether this is a genuine environmental victory or a mere distraction from more contentious rollbacks.

Dive into the chaos and dissent brewing within the EPA, where employees are mobilizing against what they see as politically motivated attacks on essential environmental science. Uncover how these internal struggles could define the future of environmental policy in the U.S.
