In a press conference today, Obama will announce the appointment of Lisa Jackson as Head of the EPA and Stephen Chu as Energy Secretary.

After 8 years of cronyism–that lead to the neglect and dismantling of a myriad of environmental protections–it’s going to seem weird to Mother Earth to actually feel protected.

President-elect Barack Obama will soon announce current head of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Steven Chu as his Secretary of Energy. Filling the slot for EPA Administrator will be Lisa Jackson, Carol Browner will serve as Obama’s “climate czar” - much better termed by the job’s official title of Energy and Climate Coordinator, and Nancy Sutley will head the White House Council on Environmental Quality.
