Just wait until these chemicals seep into the water table, flow down stream to the rivers, get into the food the farmers are growing, get into the meats the farmers are raising. It'll be on our dinner tables soon.
They are owed a new city to live in. 1000 dollars isn't even a deposit and first month rent on a new home somewhere else. The handling of this situation is beyond pathetic
What about the top soil all around that train wreck you can visibly see all the chemicals on the ground around the entire area. If someone doesn't bulldozer and dump truck that crap out it will soak into the water table eventually.
Da two weeks later a cleaning crew show up. I guess they were arguing about who was liable. I mean common you would have to be a total egg, not to see the abandonment! Not even mainstream news crew?
This sends a clear message that entire communities are expendable. They don't GAF about us. This was easily preventable , it's just they don't care if we, the land or animals die. It's gonna be up to us to watch the trains and pray we see something before it's a disaster. No one is gonna protect us from this happening again
