This episode follows up on new developments and concerns regarding the environmental disaster in East Palestine, Ohio where a train derailment has leaked a lot of chemicals into the Ohio River Basin environment and the Norfolk Southern Railway Company has been caught lying multiple times and served legal notice from the EPA.
Continued lack of transparency and inconsistencies (now also from the EPA) paired with qualitative observations made by the community are raising a lot of red flags on the state of the disaster and the impacts it will have on the community and the area at large.

Let's talk some more about what has happened since last week, what Norfolk Southern Railway Company and the EPA claim, the chemicals known to be involved, chemicals that are still unidentified in the manifest, why this is bad, why these spills are likely to happen again, and how we as citizens can get involved in the process of recovery, public pressure, and changing this broken system of environmental protection.
