After studying the timeline above, what observations can you make about u. s. environmental policy between 1970 and 1996?

The Modern US Environmental Policy consisted basically on Acts that focused on cleaning up the environment. After the 1970s the government created more regulations - like the toxic substances control act, food security act, food quality protection act - and environmental protection laws - Pollution prevention Act, Superfund, and others -.

All started with the National Environmental Policy Act that was signed by President Nixon in 1970, since then government agencies and businesses had to evaluate the impact of a project on the environment.

The public demand for a clean environment resulted in the other listed laws. After the 1980s there was some backlash against those policies, many businesses felt that those laws imposed a great economic burden on businesses and individuals.
