What will be an ideal response?
Public awareness of pollution began growing in the 1960s: the oil spill in 1969, the first Earth Day (April 22, 1970), and the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1970. Policy entrepreneurs took advantage of an aroused public to get laws passed in the 1970s. Existing environmental groups grew in size and new ones were formed. Public opinion rallied behind environmental slogans.
