acid rain. the community says it s like someone dropped a toxic nuke on them. basically nuked a town with chemsz. so get a railroad open. i was kind of surprised that when they quickly told the people they can go back home. there s a lot of what-ifs and we are going to be looking at this thing five, 10, 15, 20 years down the line and wondering gee, cancer clusters could pop up, well water could go bad. jesse: the state government s top doc came out today and said those cancer clusters no big deal. you have been exposed to these things your whole life. if you get cancernot because east palestine looks like chernobyl. most of the chemicals that we are worried about and that we re talking about fall into a category known as volatile organic chems. vulnerable organic compounds or vocs it s important for us to recognize are actually a part of our everyday life. so, if you go this afternoon on your way home to pump gas in your car, you re being exposed to volatile organic c
You should.
