(
WBNS 10TV) Activist Erin "Distracting Boobs" Brockovich says she is upset after speaking with residents in East Palestine, Ohio. Where's Julia Roberts to make another movie about the
series of train crashes and toxic chemical releases in the Rust Belt/Frost Belt of old-time train lines? Well water is polluted, the air is polluted, fish and land animals are dead, people are suffering, and the government is mostly looking the other way. Pete Buttigieg wouldn't come until he was shamed into showing up. The train companies were afraid to go anywhere near the toxic crash site.
Capitalism is the best form of destroying the environment. "Who will pay for it?" we ask. Lawsuits will make sure someone profits. The "forever chemicals" ensure that life on the surface of the planet will suffer. What if we inject the contaminated water deep into the ground?! That way it will affect people we'll never meet, generations from now. It's not like we're Buddhists or Native Americans worried about people seven generations out.
