    I met her when I was in the environmental program at my college. I had watched the movie, but failed to look up what she looked like in real life. We spoke casually several times throughout the day and when I realized who she was, I said, "OH MY GOD, YOU'RE ERIN BROCKOVICH!" And she graciously responded, "Yes, I am." We just laughed. She's a very sweet woman and activist!!

    Like Sara, I’ve seen that movie a million times and I ❤️ That scene so very much. Julia Roberts earned her Oscar. She had a cameo (as the beautiful waitress at the diner with her kids. What wasn’t mentioned was that she was a former ‘beauty queen’ and people often didn’t take her seriously for that reason (yes, in those scenes with the place that holds paper records she DID use her ‘feminine wiles’ to get into the room

    How do they not mention East Palestine in Ohio where the train crashed and poisoned the air & water a few months ago? Imagine if it had happened to a Black community…these View women would talk about it nonstop. This lady has been on Fox News a handful of times talking about East Palestine. I’d say it’s relevant. I’m as liberal as it gets but c’mon.

      No, she said “I dont like getting into that because this is going to be everybody’s issue…”
      Meaning, blaming politicians at this point is a waste of time. Things has gotten worse. Which means this will take humanity as a whole to fix the problem. To save our planet 🌎 in general. Not just politics. Between chemical spills and trash and plastic in the oceans and lakes. At this point it’s everybody’s issues and fault.

      You know, you can thank Donald Trump for rolling back all of the environmental laws for big corporations. Do you forget when he signed on it? He made a huge spectacle on the news about it too. How proud he was that corporate companies no longer had to abide by strict regulations in order to protect the environment. Then move forward to 2023, a train wrecks there goes a chemical spill. Causing locals to evacuate. All because of Trumps roll backs during his term.
