Everyone will die from something when it is their time.As humans, we can only do the best we can when we are here on Earth, but remember that our time here is short.This is why we must make the best use of our time now and not wait even if we are still considered “young” by the world’s view.The Lord God will take us when we are ready.
On the flip side, as an Environmental Engineer, I have done research in water testing.Everything we put into the environment comes back to us.Litter & Co2 too.
Well, that’s great, where will we get our water around here once all the local wells are contaminated? You think gas is expensive now, wait till it’s water that’s in demand…
Have the Middletown wells detected any contamination YET? I know there’s a lot of contaminents right near them in the ground & everyone’s just letting them sit until they get into the wells?!
We need to take pre-emptive action on this type of polution that can cause health hazards.
I don’t agree with AK’s policies but they were here before all the housings moved in around them. They did give people jobs to feed their familys and house them. Where there is factorys, there is always polution of one kind or another. People have come down with sickness no matter where they lived.
For decades I have been concerned about water contamination in Middletown, the city of my birth. My mother died of cancer at 44 and none of her close friends or relatives, more than 25 in number, lived to see 83.
All of thse African-Americans lived between the steel factory and the Miami River, an area through which contaminated ground water had to flow. A close friend who is a contamination specialist is certain that contaminated water played a major role in these premature deaths.

I feel that my mom also died because of either the air or water contamination from AK Steel. I think it is a big cover up
