The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has launched a new consolidated 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 serves as a valuable tool in delivering important health and environmental information to the Chinese-speaking community, both here in the United States and worldwide, to help protect local communities as well as the global environment.
 
Chinese is the third most widely-spoken language in the United States, after English and Spanish.
