SEATTLE (KPLU) - President Obama's choice to head the Environmental Protection Agency has been on the job for less than a year. During that time, Lisa Jackson has had to wrestle with some of the nation's toughest environmental problems, from climate change to toxic chemicals. Jackson just visited Seattle for the first time, and KPLU environment reporter Liam Moriarty spoke to her about the Puget Sound cleanup and other concerns in the Pacific Northwest. © Copyright 2012, KPLU
