Carpet Chemicals Catastrophe Brings Band of Media Outlets Together to Investigate

[Relentless]

can you believe these carpet mills just dumped their toxic waste on our environment without any care? it's insane that they knew about the dangers of forever chemicals decades ago but still didn't do anything about it. the fact that it's affecting people's health and drinking water is just horrific i hope this documentary shines a light on the issue and gets people to take action to change these companies' ways

So I was reading about this carpet mill thingy in Georgia and it's just wild how bad it got... like they knew about these toxic chemicals for decades but did nothing about it! It's all about the money, right? Companies are all about the benjamins and don't care who gets sick or what the environment looks like. That documentary on PBS sounds pretty eye-opening - I'm gonna have to check that out. And Dylan Jackson makes a point, if you ask me... these chemicals aren't just an issue for Dalton, they're everywhere. We need more people paying attention to this stuff so we can make some real change happen!

I'm really concerned about this toxic legacy from carpet mills. It's crazy to think that these chemicals can contaminate drinking water sources so far away from the town where they're produced . The fact that companies have known about these dangers for decades but haven't done enough to address them is just heartbreaking .

I do love how the journalists involved are working together to share intel and documents, it's a great example of collaboration in investigative reporting . And I'm glad they're shedding light on this issue because I think we all need to know more about what's going on with "forever chemicals" .

One thing that worries me is the long-term impact on human health and the environment, especially for future generations . We need to have a national conversation about this ASAP so that companies can be held accountable and changes can be made .
