The toxic disaster there feels like the catastrophe in Bhopal — dangerous chemicals everywhere and a lack of honesty by Norfolk Southern, the rail company that contaminated the town.
Imagine waking up to find your town engulfed in toxic chemicals. That's the grim reality for the residents of E. Palestine, Ohio. In this gripping episode, Trish Wood sits down with Sil Caggiano, who compares the disaster to the infamous Bhopal catastrophe. The rail company Norfolk Southern, responsible for the contamination, has been less than transparent, leaving the community in turmoil. Sil paints a harrowing picture of hazardous chemicals being set ablaze, possibly just to reopen the tracks.
It's a chilling reminder of how poorer communities often get overlooked until it's too late. But that's not all. Trish also engages in a spirited debate with Denis Rancourt on AIDS and recent COVID-19 policies. Denis debunks what he calls 'garbage science' and shares alarming findings on vaccine-related deaths. The conversation spans scientific freedom, excess mortality in Australia, and the erosion of public trust.
This episode is more than just a recount of events; it's a call to question the systems that fail us. If you're concerned about environmental hazards and their impact on communities, this episode is a must-listen.
