The tracks are the least of their problems. All wildlife are dying, all fish are dying, the water is contaminated and undrinkable, people are already suffering from breathing this chit..if it's killing wildlife, you can be sure it will have a lasting effect on humans..dude..wtf is wrong with you?

He's being snarky, the common "right wing" economic liberalism position on companies responsibilities begin and end with "the company has the sole obligation to make money for it's owners/shareholders". If they repair the tracks they can get back to this with minimal delay, which is obviously the most important thing. /s

What does it have to do with the thread? FEMA isn't the right agency to address this and OP thought it would be a clever way to make a political attack. So let's not pretend this is suddenly a humanitarian topic.

Or let's ignore the OP and pretend it is.

Water utilities and air tests are coming back clean or "safe". What is actually needed on the ground right now?

I think the most important thing is getting the locals and wildlife relocated..that town is no longer inhabitable for anything or anyone..

how can tests be coming back safe when everything is dying?

I mean it's kind of an emergency. Ohio pays federal taxes. They deserve help. If not through FEMA, then whoever. But do something.

I don't think it's feasible to relocate a whole town, but yes, I suspect that town is now for all intents and purposes uninhabitable.

Have those contaminated waterways been attributed to the train derailment? Are people drinking or bathing in them? Serious questions because both state and federal officials are saying things are safe. There are no shortages of private labs to verify the government though, so hopefully they are utilized and we don't base everything on tweets or go through this whole thing of "trusting the science" again.

I'm a bit of environmentalist myself, and I'd love to see all these creeks in industrial areas cleaned up. For years the EPA has been chit on for overreaching though. It's not going to happen overnight but lets go hard after anyone polluting our natural resources.

You cannot make this up..

"After a train derailment, Ohio residents are living the plot of a movie they helped make"

https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/11/healt...ise/index.html



"When Ben Ratner’s family signed up in 2021 to be extras in the movie “White Noise,” they thought it would be a fun distraction from their day-to-day life in blue-collar East Palestine, Ohio.

Ratner, 37, is in a traffic jam scene, sitting in a line of cars trying to evacuate after a freight train collided with a tanker truck, triggering an explosion that fills the air with dangerous toxins. In another scene, his father wears a trench coat and hat while people walk across an overpass to get out of town. Directors told the group they wanted them to look “forlorn and downtrodden” as they escape the environmental disaster.

The 2022 movie was shot around Ohio and is based on a novel by Don DeLillo. The book was published in 1985, shortly after a chemical disaster in Bhopal, India, that killed nearly 4,000 people. The book and film follow the fictional Gladney family – a couple and their four kids – as they flee an “airborne toxic event” and then return home and try to resume their normal lives.

“All of a sudden, it hit too close to home,” he said.

Ratner and his family – his wife, Lindsay, and their kids, Lilly, Izzy, Simon and Brodie – are living the fiction they helped bring to the screen.

Officials ordered them to evacuate their home last week, a day after a Norfolk Southern train carrying 20 cars of hazardous materials slid off the rails and caught fire, threatening to explode. The National Transportation Safety Board is still investigating the cause of the incident.

“The first half of the movie is all almost exactly what’s going on here,” Ratner said Wednesday, four days into their evacuation.

In a way, the movie has provided a point of grim humor about the situation facing the residents of East Palestine – the joke no one wanted to make."

The way I read it is him wanting to relocate the town itself, not just the people, but yes, this should absolutely be on the cards.

Someone tell the Biden administration that it might disproportionately effect a person of color.

They will come running once they hear that.

Hey 'tard? I want you to think really really hard about something"Mr. Environmentalist,"ok? Are you ready?

IF animals are dying, then people can die too.

As per reports, the burning of vinyl chloride and other chemicals has released toxic hydrogen chloride and phosgene into the air. The chemical spill occurred near the Ohio river which is a major tributary of the Mississippi river, causing concerns about water poisoning on a wider scale.The train cars were reportedly carrying thousands of gallons of vinyl chloride.

As the cars were at risk of explosion, the authorities pierced the containers, thinking of carrying out a ‘controlled release’ of the chemical. But the chemical started burning, releasing toxic fumes into the air and into a town that has a population of 5000 people.

Phosgene was used as a chemical weapon in World War 1.

CBS News has reported that there are hundreds of dead fish floating in the river water even 5 miles away. A lot of people have reported burning skin, burning eyes and farm animals dropping dead. Locals have started filing lawsuits against the Norfolk Southern company demanding compensation and medical expenses for the resulting health hazards.

But anyway 'tard, sorry to interrupt... You were saying something about your love for the environment I believe?

Everything is perfectly fine. Nothing to see here.















You would think this is one of those issues that liberals and conservatives could agree is ****ed up, and even more ****ed up that these people are getting no assistance from the government, but we can't even agree on that. This country is broken.
