With a tip of our GreenPolicy360 hat to Representative George E. Brown-S from East Los Angeles, a prime mover of legislation to create the EPA and for many years a friend and mentor to our GreenPolicy360 founder, Steve Schmidt.


As the LA Times noted (without pomp or circumstance) in George's obituary in 1999: "He championed the creation of the federal Environmental Protection Agency". The creation of the EPA was in many ways Congressman George Brown's vision achieved..."

The founding of the EPA was based on new realizations of science and the environment. The vision of the "Whole Earth" that began with unprecedented Apollo photos on the cover of Life magazine in January 1969 led to a coming together of education, students 'teach-ins', scientific space missions studying earth systems for the first time, and popular demands for environmental protections.

A leader and a chairperson on the House science committee for over 30 years, George legislatively helped to engineer a broad agenda of environmental legislation and first generation federally proposed and supported science efforts, including a science mission that greens look to as prescient -- climate science.

George believed, strongly believed and advocated that science, 'big science', was necessary to understand 'Earth System Science' . George Brown was instrumental in writing the first National Climate Act and over decades, he shepherded the start up of the Atmospheric and Earth science programs and ongoing missions that continue to this day, acquiring Earth observations and providing profoundly valuable data and baselines for policy decisions as 'Strategic Demands.'
