For sure, the priorities are screwed. I initially just wanted to point out that it's not "guy picks up trash, gets punished for it" but "guy assembles a group to dig up riverbed". If we're gonna be pissed (and we should be), let's be pissed accurately and for the right reasons. Let's be pissed that the EA is doing jack squat about problems. Let's be pissed that so many agencies have been defanged and staffed with industrial bootlicks to the point of wilful incompetence.
