Left. Right. In a box by the door.
WASHINGTON – The government is starting a different kind of most-wanted list — for environmental fugitives accused of assaulting nature.

These fugitives allegedly smuggled chemicals that eat away the Earth's protective ozone layer, dumped hazardous waste into oceans and rivers and trafficked in polluting cars.

And now the government wants help in tracking them down.

Actual list: http://www.epa.gov/fugitives/

Among the most-wanted: John Karayannides, who allegedly helped orchestrate the dumping of 487 tons of wheat tainted with diesel fuel into the South China Sea in 1998; and Raul Chavez-Beltran, who ran an environmental cleanup company in El Paso, Texas, that is accused of transporting hazardous waste from factories along the Mexican border and improperly disposing and storing it in the U.S.

Erin Brockovich could clear all these cases up in about two hours.

The way my pharmacy acts when I request aerosol asthma inhalers, I'm surprised I'm not on it.
