EPA

organization

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is a federal agency tasked with protecting human health and the environment. Established in 1970, the EPA enforces regulations and guidelines to ensure safe air and water quality, manage waste, and mitigate pollution. Recently, the agency has been in the news for clarifying misconceptions about air conditioning systems, particularly regarding the need to recharge refrigerant gas, emphasizing that such systems typically do not lose gas unless there is a leak.
