Congress has been asked to pass immediately the proposed legislation on the creation of the Environmental Protection and Enforcement Bureau (EPEB) to strengthen the enforcement of the country’s environmental laws.
The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) said the importance of the legislation was tackled during the 4th National Environmental Law Enforcement Summit held last July 14 to 16.
It said the National Law Enforcement Coordinating Committee – Subcommittee on Environment and Natural Resources (NALECC-SCENR) and other participating agencies signed Joint Resolution No. 02 Series of 2021.
It pointed out that the resolution tackled the inability of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to properly perform environmental protection and enforcement.

Calley bill classifying THC products signed into law
Sentinel Staff
LANSING Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed House Bills 4517 and 4740-46 into law this week. The bills update definitions for certain marijuana products.
Rep. Julie Calley, R-Portland, said the laws will prevent children from obtaining marijuana products in Michigan. While pot is legal in the state, Michiganders have to be 21-or-older to consume marijuana.
Delta-8 THC did not have any legal regulation in Michigan.
While it typically provides less of a reaction in humans than delta-9, the type of THC found in marijuana, producers have started to extract and concentrate the delta-8 molecule in products to mimic the effects of marijuana.
