Between the chemical companies and the fossil fuel companies, we are going to have to build a bunch of new prisons to incarcerate all these murderers. How many have died over the decades? It will be impossible to calculate. Those who knew must be prosecuted.

@ProPublica Just watched “DarkWaters” about West Va and how DuPont poisoned waters. But it didn’t end! Coal waste, fracking etc. caused locals to shut down wells and use bottled water. But many still use their wells, animals drink from polluted streams and WV residents still die from high rates of cancer and heart disease. I witnessed my long time friend die of lung cancer. He loved WV and refused to leave. A beautiful place destroyed by man!
