A couple of Ariail cartoons for you tree-huggers out there

Ariail CVSC

Ann Timberlake of Conservation Voters of South Carolina used the above Robert Ariail cartoon, from back in July, to illustrate this release today:

Folks,

This morning’s article in The State on the Pinewood landfill and the risk of hazardous waste leaking into Lake Marion reminds us all of the importance of strong leadership to protect our drinking water and our natural areas. We are troubled by the conflicting reports about DHEC and oversight at the landfill.  Governor Haley’s silence is notable.

A green governor would stand up to out-of-state polluters, and guard against the waste that would poison our lakes.

I urge you to keep that in mind as you head to the polls next Tuesday.

I’m glad to see Ms. Timberlake is a fan. But aren’t we all?

She could also have included this other one, from this week…

    Kind of like Richland County changing the rules and re-permitting the Screaming Eagle landfill to not only continue for decades after it was supposed to close, but also to enable it to significantly expand (with out of state trash).

    There are quite a few people around Columbia who ought to feel ashamed of themselves over that boondoggle. Lot’s of money was passed around town though, so I guess people figure why not let them be the ones to get it?
