EPA launches Chinese-language Web site

Advertiser Staff

The Environmental Protection Agency has launched a new Chinese-language Web site as part of its ongoing effort to provide environmental information in English, Spanish and Chinese.

The new site compiles EPA Chinese-language materials on a wide variety of issues from lead poisoning prevention, energy efficiency, and clean water to proper management of pesticides.

The site also delivers important health and environmental information to the Chinese-speaking community, both here in the U.S. and worldwide, to help protect local communities as well as the global environment.

Chinese is the third most widely-spoken language in the U.S., after English and Spanish.
