Ugh, I'm so frustrated about this
. Nine months after it first happened and still no penalties for Apex Oil Co.? That's just not right
. Environmentalists are right, stronger preventative measures should've been in place to prevent such a disaster. It's like they were just waiting for something to go wrong!
And the impact on wildlife is devastating
. Baby ducks and snakes covered in oily substance? Are you kidding me?! The cleanup efforts might take months or years, but I hope it's worth it because our environment should be protected more than ever
.
I'm also worried about human health risks
. People fishing in the canal and eating contaminated fish are putting their lives at risk. We need to hold companies like Apex Oil Co. accountable for their actions
. The Metropolitan Water Reclamation District is doing its part, but we need more transparency and regulation now
.
This incident should be a wake-up call for stronger regulations and safety protocols
. We can't keep waiting for disasters to happen before taking action. Our environment and public health are worth fighting for
.
I'm still trying to process this oily disaster in Chicago's river... nearly half a million gallons of asphalt spilled into the water almost 9 months ago?! 
it's heartbreaking to think about the long-term damage that's been done. We need to do better, you know? 
Stronger regulations and safety protocols are a must! 
I'm so bummed to see our rivers get polluted like this 
. It's like they just wanna sweep it under the rug 
. Environmentalists are right, we need stricter rules in place to prevent these disasters from happening again 
. And what about all those animals affected by this spill? 
The thought of baby ducks and water snakes covered in oil is heartbreaking 
. We need to do better, folks!
