Carcinogenic acrylonitrile plastic bottles were introduced to the public without independent testing and later had to be withdrawn from the market.
Nurdle (plastic pellet) spills are a major problem. Includes profile of Diane Wilson, who sued plastic manufacturers over huge vinyl chloride spills.

Since this is a "Draft for public comment," what if people commented the hell out of it?

About in . are a persistent pollutant They are released for example when burning plastic waste such as and the criteria is that the more chlorine is present in what is burned, the more dioxins are released
is a precursor of PVC that when burning forms vapor -boils at 48ºC- and and very little
If chlorine volatilized in , will be less of a problem

Vinyl chloride is a potent carcinogen.

No resident of East Palestine, OH, or adjacent communities affected by the derailment should accept any assistance from Norfolk Southern that also enforces waiving your right to seek any future liabilities from NS - it may take some time before these victims develop cancers and once you waive your rights you will not be able to sue.

Many people seemingly connect the term “Environmental Justice” with Black communities. But it applies to all communities that may be economically challenged, and may also be exposed to higher environmental risk in part because of that economic status. After the initial containment and cleanup, will the folks of East Palestine be forgotten? #eastpalestine #norfolksouthern #vinylchloride #environmentaljustice

Ojo, esto paso el 6 de febrero y nadie ha dicho nada
Si ha leido mucho sobre #ovnis #ufos en #usa y #china, precupense de lo que paso en ohio, usa, un desastre quimico que dejaria una zona como chernobyl

When acid rains are reported over the Great Lakes after the environmental catastrophe in #Ohio, another #UFOs coincidentally appears this time over Lake Huron, shot down by an F-16 with extensive media coverage, they try to hide the contamination of water from millions of people.

Usted debe saber cuan peligroso es este gas Cloruro de vinilo, esparcido en #Ohio: de acuerdo con el NIH, está relacionado con un tipo común de cáncer de hígado también con cánceres de cerebro, pulmón, linfoma y leucemia

Even Fox News is concerned about this!

“Notably, unlike many environmental issues, the train crash has become an issue of concern across the political spectrum. Far-right pundit Fucker #Carlson devoted a segment to the derailment on his #FoxNews show Monday night. He expressed concern that the EPA was not aggressive enough in exercising its regulatory authority to protect residents”

Text Shot: But it's not enough to feign concern. What would it actually take for the federal government to be "on top of this?" What would need to happen to minimize the risk of train derailments and protect communities from environmental disasters?

Carlson and Hannity may not like the answer. It involves imposing regulations — even when they are opposed by private industry — and reining in corporate greed.

“…authorities have been telling residents of the area around #EastPalestine, #Ohio, that it is safe to return home after a 150-car [ #NorfolkSouthern ] train carrying hazardous chemicals [ #vinylchloride ] derailed Feb 3.

“The Ohio Dept of Nat Resources said the chemical spill resulting from the derailment had killed an estimated 3,500 small fish across 7½ miof streams as of Wed.”

Keep an eye on the East Palestine, OH train derailment. Authorities ordered a controlled burn of vinyl chloride that was being transported and did not keep the community evacuated long enough to let the fatal products diffuse. State gov is not admitting the scale of the disaster, and the rail company is not supporting cleanup/recovery.

What about the particulate that is #carcinogenic, not just the current air quality?
