RFK Jr. to discuss Bush, environment at UNLV

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will discuss the Bush administration's environmental record in a lecture at 7:30 p.m.Thursday at UNLV.

Kennedy criticizes the president in his new book: "Crimes Against Nature: How George W. Bush and His Corporate Pals Are Plundering the Country and Hijacking our Democracy."

He accuses the administration of rolling back more than 200 environmental laws during his term.

The free lecture is part of a 10-college campus book tour by Kennedy, an environmental lawyer who works for the Hudson Riverkeeper, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Waterkeeper Alliance.

The lecture is in the Classroom Building Complex (CBC-A112).
