- Superfund sites: Toxic chemicals and massive sites of pollution that can sit for years on years while companies and the government battle over responsibility. While they are in the courtroom, damages to the environment and human health in the surrounding areas of the site suffer. Where are these Superfund sites, and what is being done about them?

There comes a point where throwing something away really does not mean 'away' It ends up someplace and at someone else's backyard.
Soon it will end up on someone else's planet. Oh wait it already is sometimes today.
Nothing more frustrating than being the consultant for a company who wants to go out of their way to do everything the wrong way
Can you name the contractor/company? So we don't make a mistake of working with them?
@@cohenc100 no response. That means he's complicit. Just as guilty, in my opinion.
If you stay at a company that makes these devastating choices, you suck. You compromised your morals for money. Nobody thinks you're the good guy.
This is so well made. Shame that there aren't more views.
Just read about the Colonia High School cancer cluster, and then onto Tom's River, and now I'm here. I hope this brings some awareness to the cries for help from everybody affected. :-(
Greetings from Oshawa Canada......
As member of the disgusting generation responsible for this destruction I say God Bless you young people. Mother Earth needs you. I can only speak for myself but as a lifelong DEVO fan I'm aware of the mess we've left behind. I remember Love Canal.
It's a shame what we are doing to our world. Our grandchildren 's world.
It's not us. This is what people need to understand. We're victims. We're slaves. We're being poisoned. All we can do is turn to God and beg Him to make it stop.
I can remember being a kid walking with my grandpa and him showing me toxic barrels of hexavalent chromium out at Spencer Park in Belvidere IL we always stayed far away but you could see the chemicals on the ground and leaking from the barrels and there was nothing but sand all the plants and animals were gone from the aera it has since been cleaned up but in some areas the earth is still scared to this day and it's all fenced off for safety
Found this after looking into the recent disaster in Ohio and man, it's chilling when the expert mentions chlorine as one of the worst possible contaminates
That's kind of where I started too. I was looking into purchasing a gorgeous property with irrigation shares. Then I saw the railroad. After finding out who owned it, and who owned them, and who owned those owners, it all went back to blackrock and vanguard. Then I thought, well, maybe it's not hazardous waste. I followed the tracks upstream, up the mountain, and there I found the cotter corporation's superfund site for radioactive groundwater contamination. I'm devastated that this keeps happening. We are living in a sort of hell, where we have little to no control over what they do to us.
What would a mass dumping of diethyltoluamide have any sort of lasting environmental/human health consequences? I know that the EPA has been cracking down on how much DEET can be legally distributed to bug spray manufacturers.
I think we're in hell. Something is very wrong here. A corporation chooses to make money creating nuclear bombs for a war I don't even want us to fight, and when their waste ponds leak into the soil and the water, and the corporation ditches the site, I have to pay to clean it up, and I'm the one who's sick because I lIve downstream, down the mountain, from the site. Now the corporation is back in my state operating as usual, making new bombs, even though they never cleaned up their last mess. THIS IS HELL.
I work across the street from a class c superfund site. I swear it’s been making me sick and causing me a lot of trouble. I can’t just quit my job Idk what to do
Thank you.
Wow, that's disturbing.
I'm devastated to find out about this. I don't even know where to go from here. 😭
Um, try VINEGAR for degreasing...
57 Marlborough rd, Salem Massachusetts. Heavy Metal Superfund site. Learn something about it
Shit, there are numerous Superfund sites in Massachusetts. I was a newspaper reporter based on the South Shore from 2004-2006, and I covered the Baird & McGuire Superfund site at 775 South St, Holbrook, MA 02343.
Nothing happens to the waste, it is here forever and sometimes relocates. We need to stop making waste.
WHY ARE THESE COMPANIES STILL OPERATING!!!
Too bad we can’t dump it at Martha’s Vineyard!
So the rich can live a life of luxury in their private airliners and a giant mansion put the little people like us we have to worry about conserving, right I don’t think that’s correct
People want to yell about problems all day long but they don’t wanna give us any solutions. OK fine will clean everything up. Producing machinery that’s efficient and needed for productivity in our Konomi. What are you gonna give us want to stop making those machines stop producing those chemicals
All I hear are complaints I don’t hear any solutions
It looks like a lot of B-roll.
Nobody's worried in TrumpLand
Mar-a-Lago and Trump Tower should be designated federal Superfund sites.
The whole elite. They dgaf that they're killing us. That appears to be the plan.
I was thinking Martha’s Vineyard!
Ship it all to Syria
Ship it all to Mar-a-Lago, son.
Unfortunately, pollution doesn't respect borders. Still our problem.
Just remember these guys are doing a good job and taxes from industry go towards super fund nothing to do with trump
Taxes from industry do NOT go towards superfund anymore. Did you watch the film? What are you talking about?
I'm paying for this. I didn't want that nuclear bomb factory up the hill from my irrigated property, I didn't want it to make me, my friends, and my family sick, I didn't want those bombs to kill people with, but I'll be the one paying to clean it up. We really need to wake up to our controllers. Smh
