(9/24/08) EPA today released the "2008 Report on the Environment: Highlights of National Trends" (2008 ROE HD), which provides the American people with an important resource for better understanding trends in our nation's health and environment. The report is intended for a general audience and summarizes highlights of the more comprehensive "EPA's 2008 Report on the Environment," which was released in May, and provided the scientific and technical information. Together the two reports present national environmental trends and inform EPA's strategic planning process with the best available, scientifically sound information.

EPA also launched a new Web site that allows the user to search the full technical report for specific trends in air, water, and land.
