Michael Stanley Regan (born August 6, 1976) is an American environmental regulator. He has been serving as the 16th administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency since March 11, 2021.
Regan lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, with his wife, Melvina, and son, Matthew. Their first-born son, Michael Stanley Regan, Jr. ("MJ") died on August 16, 2012 from stage IV high-risk neuroblastoma at the age of one.
this doesn't even seem like (irregular) corruption. EPA drew up some program for recycled fuel to put a """green""" checkmark on the federal progressive scoresheet to wave during election season and they're pushing shit through to make it a success.
everyone knew reprocessing fucking plastic (a byproduct of fuel REFINING) would turn out the nastiest of stuff but who cares this looks good for chevron's balance sheet & for the administration
Don't worry, it's not much more carcinogenic than existing chemicals that were grandfathered in.
Nevertheless, in response to questions, the agency wrote, “EPA considered the full range of values described in the risk assessment to develop its risk management approach for these” fuels. The statement said that the cancer risk estimates were “extremely unlikely and reported with high uncertainty.” Because it used conservative assumptions when modeling, the EPA said, it had significantly overestimated the cancer risks posed by both the jet fuel and the component of marine fuel. The agency assumed, for instance, that every plane at an airport would be idling on a runway burning an entire tank of fuel, that the cancer-causing components would be present in the exhaust and that residents nearby would breathe that exhaust every day over their lifetime.
In addition, the EPA also said that it determined the risks from the new chemicals were similar to those from fuels that have been made for years, so the agency relied on existing laws rather than calling for additional protections. But the Toxic Substances Control Act requires the EPA to review every new chemical – no matter how similar to existing ones. Most petroleum-based fuels were never assessed under the law because existing chemicals were exempted from review when it passed in 1976. Studies show people living near refineries have elevated cancer rates.
just eating fish from tainted water is a 7% cancer risk
I really need to go Vegan... 
i'm sure Chevron in their magnanimity will ensure your carcinogens will bioaccumulate in the soil & plants as well! worry not citizen! 
oh, yeah. this is the active ingredient in that Liquid Death that's so popular lately
Loading up a super soaker with this to make a cancer 
CIA Cancer Gun
KGB Cancer Super Soaker
What in the absolute fuck
Sweet, chemtrails irl
: "Nah, it's good now because it's done because porky wants money. Let's all get cancer, obese, and addicted to everything! It's our PaTrIoTiC dUtY!"
Tell us what the name is of the freakin' chemical!
it doesn't even have a name, just a code number
they do that on purpose
Nah, if they gave away the name they'd be giving away what it's made of. And we can't have people finding out there's straight up Molochian blood hexes in the fuel
I hereby name it cancer juice
P-21-0144 through 0150, P-21-0152 through, and P-21-0160 through 0163
The chemical name is for one of these is
Let’s just imagine for a moment if it were unredacted:

...That's one hell of an act. Whaddaya call it?
The Oblongs!
the US has adopted the Mr. Burns Disease Prevention Philosophy
Would anyone like to go in on a biodome with me?
As long as Pauly Shore isn't invited.
Somebody has to bring the spray can cheese tho.
so where are they using this new cancer fuel I want to avoid those places
avoid the sky and the sea and the land
how do these people sleep at night
on a pile of money
Literal dragons
Dw guys, Elon Musk will fix this by making electric boats any moment now.
love our beautiful boaters
I....is it too late for us to appropriate a certain D-word?
Because I have no other words to describe this except for peak [redacted].
if you're talking about removed then I dunno, I'm coming around to using it to refer to complex systems (a town, an institution, a mode of production, a geopolitical order) but I'm not comfortable using it to refer to individuals or groups of people
