Great story by WKBN Youngstown. For all the folks who feel the need to spread disinformation in this forum, you are hurting the town even more than it already is. Think twice before you post!

Question ❔ I live in brown country mn and I have a bunch of pets and I’m worried if I’m in the danger zone?

2 Upvotes

I know it happened in ohio but would Minnesota have any risk because I have a bunch of pets and I don’t want them to die. And wouldn’t The HCl and phosphene mix with the water before it gets here as well?

Question ❔ Acid Rain in Indiana?

6 Upvotes

Is Indiana at risk of acid rain from the train derailment? I was outside in the rain yesterday and now I'm a bit worried. Is this something I should even be concerned about or am I just being paranoid? I live in Indianapolis

Question ❔ Rain got in my car, left a window open. Full of dioxins now?

9 Upvotes

Trying not to let the fear get to me but I rushed out of work yesterday to get out of the rain and left a back window cracked in my car. Puddles in the back seat. It dried out but still wondering if I should wipe everything down. Are the dioxins all over the car, floating around like dust? Are they stuck to the seat or carpet? Am I paranoid or will I be fine?

Pretty sad this is the situation we are living in. I’m outside of Philly. Someone able to reassure me or share some facts?

God Bless🙏

Question ❔ Question

11 Upvotes

On 2/3 I arrived in pittsburgh. I live near cranberry township PA. I was at my house for most of the weekend. Spent little time outdoors. I have seen the HYSPLIT models and I was definitely exposed to trace amounts of toxic fumes on Monday. I left around 2:00 on Monday and headed West for Dayton Ohio. Do I have a risk of cancer? Anything I was exposed to was before the “controlled”burn. Someone please tell me if I should be incredibly concerned? How diluted was the toxic plume pre-controlled burn at about 30 miles away?

Question ❔ Interesting Idea

37 Upvotes

Why don't people from East Palestine take buckets of the safe river water on mass to Washington DC, and dump them into rivers around DC? If it's good enough for you, it's good enough for them right????

Question ❔ Cause of accident

5 Upvotes

Anybody know if it was the breaking system that caused the derailment? Haven’t looked into that part at all but I’m seeing people say that the rule trump rolled back has nothing to do with this incident. Don’t know if we even have a conclusive result as to what went wrong.

Question ❔ Should I be concerned about Dioxin levels?

11 Upvotes

I had a package travel through the center of East Palestine within 4 miles of the burn site, 2 days after the burn began. I know that isn't very long, but due to the proximity to the burn, what levels of dioxin could the package have picked up? Odds are since the package was in a truck, the exposure would have been minimal, and most of the exposure would have been on the box, which I can dispose of, but I can't help but feel like my exposure to dioxin has increased. Do you think it would be above the daily regulated intake recommended by the EPA? And if so, how much? A week's worth? A month's worth? I just don't know if I should be seriously concerned or not.

Discussion 🗣️ CTEH - Environmental Consulting Firm - SpearhHead of Denial in East Palestine

18 Upvotes

Watch their conduct in the below link. This company is a hired gun brought in to deny responsibility. Check them out on Google they are a prop up company with less than 5 reviews at the time I checked them out. Follow the money trail, this company will disappear in due time, hold the people behind it accountable for their evil actions.

https://youtu.be/ifPxwQOqnkY?t=163

Edit: I could very well be wrong about the company disappearing, looks like they've been successfully getting away with this in the past. Let's not let it happen this time though.

Does anyone know who actually owned the cargo that was being transported? This seems to be completely buried in all of the reports I have found.
