Source text - English The environmental policy of the United States is a federal governmental action to regulate activities that have an environmental impact in the United States. The goal of environmental policy is to protect the environment for future generations while interfering as little as possible with the efficiency of commerce or the liberty of the people and to limit inequity in who is burdened with environmental costs. As his first official act bringing in the 1970s, President Richard Nixon signed the U.S. National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) into law on New Years Day, 1970. NEPA established a comprehensive US national environmental policy and created the requirement to prepare an environmental impact statement for “major federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the environment.”
As a result of the environmental movement in the United States, it continued to mature in the 1970s during which several environmental laws were passed, regulating air and water pollution and forming the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Partially due to the high costs associated with these regulations, there has been a backlash from business and politically conservative interests, limiting increases to environmental regulatory budgets and slowing efforts to protect the environment. Since the 1970s, despite frequent legislative gridlock, there have been significant achievements in environmental regulation, including increases in air and water quality and, to a lesser degree, control of hazardous waste. Due to increasing scientific consensus on global warming and political pressure from environmental groups, modifications to the United States energy policy and limits on greenhouse gas have been suggested.
As established under NEPA, the US was the first nation in the world to introduce the concept of preparing an environmental impact statement (EIS) to evaluate the alternatives and impacts of proposed federal actions. The EIS is designed to forge federal policies, programs, projects, and plans. A large percentage of nations around the world have adopted provisions that emulate the American EIS process.
Translation - Portuguese A politica ambiental dos Estados Unidos é uma ação governamental para regular atividades que tenham um impacto ambiental nos Estados Unidos. O objetivo da politica ambiental é protejer o meio ambiente para as futuras gerações enquanto interferem o minimo possivel na eficiencia do comércio ou da liberdade das pessoas e para limitar desigualdade em quem esta sobrecarregado com custos ambientais. Como seu primeiro ato oficial nos anos 70, o Presidente Richard Nixon assinou o EUA Ato Politico Ambiental Nacional (NEPA) em lei no primeiro dia do ano, 1970. NEPA estabeleceu uma abrangente politica nacional ambiental americana e criou requirimentos para preparar uma declaração de impacto ambiental para "importantes ações federais afetando significantemente a qualidade ambiental."
Como resultado do movimento ambiental nos Estados Unidos, isso continuou a amadurecer nos anos 70 em qual muitas leis ambientais passaram, regulando ar e poluição da agua e formando a Agencia de Proteção Ambiental (EPA). Parcialmente por conta do alto custo associado a essas regulamentações, tem havido resistencia de negocios e de interesses conservativos politicos, limitando crescimentos para orçamentos de regulamentações e diminuindo esforços para proteger o meio ambiente. Desde 1970, apesar de frequente bloqueio legislativo, tem havido significantes avanços na regulamentação ambiental, incluindo crescimentos de qualidade em ar e agua, em um grau menor de poluição industrial. Devido ao crescimento do consenso cientifico global alertas e pressão politica de grupos ambientais, modificações na politica energetica americana e limites nos gases de efeito estufa foram sugeridos.
Como estabelecido na NEPA, os EUA foram a primeira nação no mundo a apresentar o conceito de declaração de impacto ambiental (EIS) para avaliar as alternativas e impactos das ações federais propostas. O (EIS) é designado para forjar politicas federais, programas, projetos e planos. Uma grande porcentagem das nações ao redor do mundo tem adotado provisões que imitam o processo EIS Americano.
