Huge Ash Spill in Tenessee

Ok so it is from Common Dreams and it screams environmentalism, but c'mon. Here are some of the highlights to the title link. Written by David Cook

a man-made pond containing toxic ash...more than one billion gallons of coal ash spilled into the Tennessee River and its tributaries.


The spill is 40 times larger than the Exxon Valdez disaster in Alaska


The Kingston coal power plant is one of the many energy plants owned and operated by the governmental agency known as the Tennessee Valley Authority.


Go to United Mountain Defense for more information about the disaster and to donate to their relief efforts. So far TVA "Tennessee Valley Authority" is not providing any type of refief aid.
