<p> The green may finally have risen to the top. Buying the
argument that the move would give the U.S. more clout in debates
with environmental ministers from other countries, the Senate
voted to elevate the Environmental Protection Agency to Cabinet
level. The measure was sent to the House, where it died last
year because of objections to a Republican amendment requiring
government compensation to property owners affected by
environmental restrictions. This year the controversial
amendment was dropped, improving the odds significantly, though
it's still not a sure shot.
