And there are people who actually think we don't environmental laws.

Ugh.. and I live downstream. Guess it's even more money spent on bottled water for a while. No heavy metals though so with all this rain it'll be in KC in no time.

Just added flavoring.

What regulations that are in place are so weak that companies like Tyson just blow them off and chalk up any fines to the cost of doing business.  Imagine the green light given to industries when the EPA is completely neutered under another Trump regime.

I don't know of any regulations that would have prevented this.  But, companies that allow this need to have major consequences.  There are lots or people who think those rules shouldn't exist or be greatly reduced.  There are people who think the EPA should be disbanded because they are horrible and we don't need them.

I'm showing an example of where these laws and the EPA is needed.

Super Erection Time for the climate bros!

Also, now that I am off for the summer a little trip to the Caribbean sounds nice.

I’m shocked that houses being built where they had no business being built are falling over.   Shocked!   From the article…

North Carolina’s coast is almost entirely made up of narrow, low-lying barrier islands. And a modern wave of tourist-driven development, including acres of pricey vacation homes, has been built in places where it probably should not have been.

I know the enviro-bros will lose it but maybe building that close the the water is a bad idea.

I mean, I get wanting to be "on the water" but come on now.

Not only close to the water, but literally on naturally shifting barrier islands and expecting them not to shift or cause issues.    
 

Could you imagine what the enviro bros outside of the Pompeii area were saying back in the day when Mt. Vesuvius erupted??   “We gotta stop the man made climate change causing this volcano to erupt and destroying the cities we build right next to it.”
