I want to know the answer to the following question:
When did America establish the Environmental Protection Agency?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Although the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was established in 1970 and amendments to the pesticide law in 1972, pesticide use has increased 50-fold since 1950 and 2.3 million tonnes (2.5 million short tons) of industrial pesticides are now[when?]". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
