Still on the road, but wanted to share a nifty link. At www.bajaweb.net/scorecard you can plug in your zip code and get an entire run-down on environmental issues in your area. Topics covered include Toxic Chemicals, Air, Water, Agriculture, Environmental Justice and Health Hazards. I know you can't see the pic very well, but if you click on it, it will take you directly to the web page.
