- Three days after the Norfolk Southern train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, on Feb. 3, 2023, officials - with the EPA’s blessing - burned 116,000 gallons of vinyl chloride into the region.
Now, for the first time since the incident, new data reveals just how far those toxins spread.
Within minutes, a mushroom-like cloud of toxins billowed into the atmosphere and smothered the area.

Think about all the farm grown foods this has contaminated.
Yeah. It's messed up that they are likely to still sell it.
Yes! Virtually zero.
Yeah, like roundup ready coen isn't shit.
think about all the food we buy grown in china, india, and other filthy countries
The truth is people are being poisoned on purpose and cancer rates are going up yearly!
CORRECTION. The disaster DID NOT cause the chemicals to catch fire. The TRAIN COMPANY SET IT ON FIRE. This was ARSON.
The fire department decided this and the chief stood by his decision.
Let's see if they change their mind
@@TheMocutMiester another Arredondo.
Be careful. This all flows down from the top....
It's not arson because they own it
@@guineapig1016intentionally burning these chemicals is a crime, no one referred to the MSDS documented prohibited procedures! Go pull the MSDS sheet on this stuff and get back to me! There's neurotoxins in the other two chemicals they aren't mentioning!
yeah, i absolutely consider this criminal arson
But god forbid I put the “wrong” muffler on my car. Prison time for violating the clean air act…
EXACTLY!!
YUP
Individual responsibility instead of systematic change. And we wonder why our biomes are dying.
Both deserve prison time
-Nobody- most nobody is above the law
This is criminal why aren't the CEOs of this company in jail?
Same reason The ECOLOGY Movement started in 1970 never made it with more than a fraction of the public. But at least it gave USA new holiday.. we celebrate Earth Day as we throw our FOREVER CHEMICALS useless convenience junk in the trash.
Money and cowardice.
Exactly- like Enron, World om, & WellsFargo CEOs- in past!
Because they are in bed with the people who run the jails.
Corruption
Who ever set that on fire and helped make that decision should be on trial.

You really think this was an accident,we are dying in denial.
They literally are trying to kill us at every turn
Thanks genius
Of course it was accident or negligence, there's more efficient ways to spread toxin than a spill like this, this was simply a huge, expensive environmental disaster. An actual diabolical person or group would be smarter than this lmao

@@Vanessa-ok3ys a cover up for a bigger crime
They wanted to save money by not cleaning hazmat materials up, I just can’t believe how the USA would allow this just to clear a track, they should of closed it for as long as it would of took to clean without burning and even then it would still be contaminated in those areas just not as far spread.. just so sad and disturbing shit like this is happening in the first world
There is no safe amount of vinyl chloride.
💯
What about poly-vinyl chloride then? Isn’t that used for like every thing? (PVC)
Yeah lol ...dont worry, everything will be fine😖.
@@privateinvestigator8607 yep, most people are drinking tiny amounts of it our whole lives. I think scientists have found it in nature recently, like plants and animals are being found with it their blood and growth structures.
We really screwed up when we moved off glass and metal, easily recyclable and re-usable, but bad for big business. 😓
@@privateinvestigator8607 Vinyl chloride is toxic, but when it burns it becomes 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) which is the most toxic compound known to man. There is no safe dose of TCDD. This has been known for 70 years. The EPA told the Ohio gov to set it on fire. Premeditated redrum.
We are still interested in what happened in East Palestine Ohio!!!
So much Bad News everywhere on the planet much is not remembered. Total world chaos .
Yup, it's always a distraction from what is really happening.
Honestly the weirdest way to introduce the story imaginable. I lol'd
Up to 540,000 square miles, spanning 16 U.S. states & approx. 110 million people or about 1/3 of the population of the US.
Hell yes we are still interested,
And personally involved & effected in one of the greatest disasters of our time.
But not any before or since?
Can't wait for absolutely no one to ever be held accountable for this.
And that's what makes me mad!
Be the change you want to see in the world.
The people responsible bleed like we do, and have names and addresses.
Never will happen unfortunately….
I'm 15 miles from the train wreck.You can smell the funk in the air.People are still getting sick.
I'm 200 miles SE, and was gagging/coughing/sneezing April 15, 2023. I lost most of my sense of taste and smell. Sweet perfumes have a funky smell. The good news; I survived and have just noticed I am getting a little bit of smell and taste recovery. I suggest getting on some detox/minerals/amino acids etc.(whatever your budget will allow). I had a co-worker once tell me I was like a pit bull who bit, and wouldn't let go. He's right; I won't stop fighting. But when I give a progress/praise report; the very people who helped, don't believe me. It's a mad mad mad world, I tell you!
Run, run and get your children and family out. Please for the love of God only drink bottled water and food brought in on trucks. Get to an ALDIS for groceries if you can. They import alot of foods from europe. We have time right now to still save people while the government does fucking nothing. Store bought foods are usually worse for you but you dont really get a choice here. Get a minimum 500 miles from this imo. Millions of people will have canc.ers because of this disaster
@@natenate2280 You'd have to look where bottled water comes from because if it's sourced around that chemical fire, it could be bad
@@Sernival it would still be better than tap water only miles from the cite
And yet the RR CEOs are still raking in billions and being held accountable for nothing.
RFKjr 🇺🇸. This is one of his specialties. Believe me, it's one reason they're absolutely terrified of him.
The Feds authorized the insane plan for the massive burn off; that's primarily why the railroad is immune from prosecution.
They really should be sued and residents of the N.East be paid for damages.
You apparently don’t know much about railroads.

@@DR3ADER1nah the Earth will eventually recover. Much of the current flora and fauna may not though. Still, life will go on.
@@DoctorSess Incorrect, when most of the current flora doesn't survive, then that's the textbook definition of the Earth NOT RECOVERING! The same logic applies to rising sea levels and rising water toxicity and temperatures.
"You may not be interested..." what a bizarre and insensitive way to open this segment.
The phrasing is intentional to help lead the blow over.
they didn't seem interested in reporting on it just a few weeks after the event. blame it on the people like always
because they burned it! everyone involved with that decision to burn instead of CLEANING need to be sent to prison. This is criminal.
Horseshit. He even admitted they burned it to open the railroad. Why is no one being held responsible. Fire everyone at epa and get new people.
epa called em legacy chemicals.....🤬
also epa RELIED ON NORFOLK SOUTHERN TESTING... they couldn't bother to test themselves... list the names.. we need the internet to do it's thing end list the epa names of those inspectors
epa RELIED ON NORFOLK SOUTHERN TESTING and couldn't be bothered to do it themselves.
The EPA did not CAUSE this problem! Trumps Millionaire buddies did!
its a big club and you aint in it
Those states have a duty to sue the companies and people responsible for that disaster.
The Federal Government as well.
Poisoned the whole east coast…how is that an accident?
The government does not sue their political donners silly .
Why? They were the ones responsible for allowing this to happen. Actually, the Citizens allowed this to happen, but hey as long as someone sees profit, who cares?
We can't sue the government.
The weather radar images during the burn were horrifying. The winds that day changed 360 degrees spreading pollution everywhere. A few days later, the images were nowhere to be found on the internet.
I remember people talking about it on facebook and then someone asked for the pictures. Everybody started freaking out when they couldnt find them anymore.
There's almost nothing worse than poisoning the soil. After all, that's EVERYTHING. Water tables (wells), crops, dust in the air, foundation upon which everything and everyone stands. It's a bloody shame.
It's also one of the most fresh water rich regions of the US.
Great Lakes City Water only costs a fortune because the infrastructure is 150+ years old.
They're constantly having to upgrade and replace the systems, sewage treatment systems, fix water mains breaking in -15 degree weather.
the birth rates, fertility rates, and intelligence of people have been falling year after year. Pure coincidence. Wink

Yes through force! The same thing they do to us
It is the Republicans who deregulate everything and want to get rid of the EPA. Republican era deregulation paid for by big corporations paying for the legislation is what got is here. The mobilization of multiple governmental agents with expertise-which the GOP plans to dismantle at the at the order of their corporate donors- is what limited the damage and stayed on the job over a year after this mess.
Yet conveniently they throw the EPA under the bus, as if they set the fire. And by no way am I idealized a huge lumbering government bureaucracy.

They know what the health risks and the toxicity of those chemicals are.They just don't want to say it because it's so horribly terrible.
Because it's basically agent 🍊!! 😡🤬🤬
The EPA is a waste of our tax dollars! They’re more worried about cheap plastic bottles and plastic straws than a real catastrophe!
The EPA is allowed to make recommendations for what to do . There are limits to what they can mandate. These power limits were enacted by the former administration. Yeah, Trump.

They don't care about either, but there's money and power in pushing the Ukraine war for them. There's nothing for them in Ohio, sadly.
The government was there cleaning it up because the RR company didn't have the equipment to do anything.
@@walterdaems57 Great argument. You've changed our opinion. Lmfao!!!
This entire train wreck story has been a nightmare from the very beginning. Thanks for this update!
This was not an accident. People need to wake up.
they wanted it to spread to the most populous area of the usa
They set it on fire to save the company money. MONEY
That's the only thing that matters in the USA. Where have you been.
Evil!
these are global elites taking actions like this. Definitely bigger than just the US. And IMHO and understanding, it's a lot deeper than money 🤐
Yes, chose the cheapest way possible, not the safest. The governor would not ask Biden for help because they did not want to upset the railroad. All due to the deregulation of the last administration.
@TheQueenRulesAll
Biden wouldn't do anything anyways
Unacceptable period.
LOL look up the NY Love Canal incident that still remains untouchable
Uhh, obviously it's totally acceptable??
Weird how just a year before this happened, they released a movie about it happening
Yep
What's the name of the movie?
@@lalagardenia6500Its called “White noise” and it was literally filmed in East Palestine, OH before the actual real-life incident. Weird as shit.
I was doing delivery in central PA that day and thought the black lowering clouds were bizarre weather...I'm sure we got affected. There was no official warning from our precious government.
The official warning was the government saying everything was contained and nothing got contaminated..
….our biggest threat is corporations
Our biggest threat is the O'Biden Administration
Trump repealed Obama's era Train breaking systems so corporations didn't have to maintain them ... that's a fact.
Correction: Congressional bribery. Don't worry no one's going to prison but some may visit their graves early from cancer or other health problems.
Actually it’s democrats and Biden administration disaster
The biggest threat is the politicians that they own.....
I live an hour from the derailment and the government kept telling us that we weren’t affected. I’m chemically sensitive and I could feel it days after the burn. This whole situation was handled very poorly!
Not as bad as the Love Canal incident in NY but pretty close.
Whaaat? No way our govt ever lies!
Me too
Although I totally believe you, what does "chemically sensitive" mean? Since most chemicals are harmful and irritants, I feel like just about everyone has a sensitivity to chemicals.
Sue them so disturbing
Funny ol Joe giving money for other states but won't help u
Whoever decided to burn the material should be in jail.
The governor told them to burn it
Why aren’t they calling for the arrest of all officials involved? Why aren’t the companies involved being sold off to pay every citizen of all 16 states?
Should never have been set on fire
Wild how the responders didn't have a 20 dollar book called emergency response guide which literally tells you how to act with which chemical spills. They ignored it and decided to create phosgene instead
@@mediaisthevirus Like that HAZMAT guy said "We basically nuked the town to open the railroad". You know it was Norfolk Southern who somehow led the entire cleanup, and probably threatened legal action against the town if they didn't comply. I also wouldn't doubt it they somehow threatened the jobs of the local officials, or the officials are also in NS's pockets. I have a suspicion that most towns who have a major railroad going through them are paid off for these exact incidents. I live in a town where CN rolls right through, and we have also had very minor derailments here. If something like this happened in my town, I wouldn't doubt it if they would implement the same response.

I can't sleep at night without constant wheezing and coughing, even if I'm staying in someone else's house or a hotel. I'm 33 and overall healthy, and this has never happened. I was blowing it off as allergies from pollen and humidity, but that doesn't make sense in the cold months. I wonder if there is any kind of bloodwork to detect levels of chloride in someone's system? If there is, I'll be the first around here to sign up, and I hate being stabbed and having blood taken.
I'll add that my sports asthma wasn't even this bad when I had covid 2-3 times in the past 4 years.

@@honeybadger3570 ..Yep, When they intentionally dumped out all the chemicals and set them on fire . It became VERY obvious something is very wrong here.
Is anyone at all concerned with the fact she said in this news report “just how far those toxins spread when they WERE SET ON FIRE” she used that language specifically because this was no accident.
Everything in the environment is connected!!!! If someone pees in one tiny corner of a swimming pool, THE ENTIRE POOL HAS BEEN PEED IN!!! Dumping toxic chemicals in the environment is the same thing.
EVERYONE of those involved in spreading and magnifying that disaster need to be in jail!
And ignored by the same people who never shut up about how important the planet is to take care of 😮
Good point so so true
Still nothing for Hawaii either absolutely appalling
@@maryjogreen1706THAT'S PRECISELY WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING!! Both, Maui and East Palestine, suffered absolutely tragic devastation and destruction, and our government barely even acknowledged it because they were too worried about "aiding" other foreign countries with the taxpayer's money, instead of aiding their own country's IMMENSELY serious tragedies.. that's like tryna put out a fire at a neighbor's house while your own house is burning down!! I was totally outraged by how both disasters were handled by ALL the government agencies who were involved, but even more livid about how the current administration blatantly disregarded their duty and responsibility to addressing them appropriately and effectively.. it seems to me that they can't be bothered to care about crises we have here because there's no money in it for them like there obviously is in other countries.. smh.. greed for money/power and depraved corruption will become the ultimate collapse and downfall of our entire nation, and eventually the world, if it's allowed to continue😔🥺😳😤😧
And the Orange One said Global Warming is a hoax!!
Their groups are all paid millions by the CCP.
And they won't dare criticize the Biden Cartels.
Interesting point about your comment:
Eastern Ohio is one of the most Woodsy, most Natural Places in America.
The Sasquatch Sightings are there because It's extremely rugged and remote.
Mashing up with Woodsy Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky.
And the waterways all dump into the Ohio River, and eventually Mississippi River.
Who wants to swim in the Gulf?!
Instead of pumping the chemicals into other empty tanks , it was dumped and burned.
many 3 letter agencies need an overhaul and many people deserve to go to jail...
As a devoted Railfan, we need to bring back rules for toxic chemical trains
Nuclear waste is also transported by rail too in case anyone has forgotten.
It could have ended much much worse.
So YES rail safety protection & toxic disaster protocols need to be strengthened in a HUGE WAY.
And residents along those rail lines should have the RIGHT to know what is being transported across country, through states , cities, towns, neighbourhoods , & backyards.
& I would even Go so far as to call for & support everyone having a voice Or vote in the matter of approving or disapproving dangerous cargo, especially in the the amounts that effect the health and well being of the entire nation - our children - & their children's children.
Especially after this massive failure to protect the nation.
@@SizzleMoonSong Nuclear waste would have been a far better outcome. It would have just been a couple hundred virtually harmless concrete blocks that would need to be picked up.
It's any chemical produced from oil companies that end up being disasters. Oil companies fund our government though, so they are immune to lawsuits, and laws in general.
@@aaronkoning7255 you obviously don't know much about nuclear waste or how it is shipped...
It is so radioactive it can be easily tracked by satellites in space , even over 30 years ago...
I'm not downplaying how devastating this accident is, or the long-term possible effects on 110 million people across 16 states.
But if you think nuclear waste is somehow safer than chemical spill, then I'd suggest reading up & learning about the after effects - Both immediate and long-term - of Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombing.
And/or Chernobyl, Fukushima & Three Mile Island
I was wondering how long it would take to get back to this issue. 16 months is wild, I remember no one believed the gov saying it was safe
Just imagine how these toxic substances are traveling around our nation everyday. No wonder cancer rates are up. And then think about the contaminated farm land, and what’s in the food we eat 😮
Well as I recall it…They trucked a lot of the toxic soil to other states.
Holy crap that’s soooo bad. Who decided to burn it ???
You know who!
Local state authorities with little knowledge of airborne contaminants or chemical reactions.
Dewine
EPA told the governor to burn it when they knew that would create TCDD, the most toxic and persistent chemical known.
The governor was told to burn it by his master...
Who ever gave the ok to burn that off should be held accountable why in the world would that be ok to do. Why didn't they pump it into other containers it's reduculous.
They point fingers and won’t admit who gave the order to burn the train chemicals. I watched it happen and remember writing the toxins were going to spread with the explosion, making it worse. The railroad was getting rid of evidence as fast as they could and getting it out of the area in my opinion.
Because anything else would take time and they wanted those railroads running. it was literally just a greed move, poison half the US for potentially many years to come so they can make some bucks. I guarantee the government gets some of that pie. The EPA also was extra shady around this.
The governor!!!
It was ok for what matters to the railroads and oligarchs: their bottom line.

I hope this guy who's wondering where EPA remembers how the EPA got upended to begin with. they all stood behind someone who said EPA needed to basically be defunded and underminded staff were defanged basically! was fine with regulations going away increasing billionaires margins, plus tax cuts!

I'm in southern Indiana and our garden and plants in general have been awful this year. You may be onto something.
