Deadly Paper Mill Chemical Disaster

Eleven dead, three still missing after a chemical tank explosion at a Washington paper mill—this is now one of the deadliest workplace disasters in recent history. Over half a million gallons of toxic paper-making chemicals spilled, forcing a dangerous, slow recovery as crews battle hazardous conditions. Among the victims: a beloved grandfather known for his generosity and a young husband praised for his selflessness. Eight others were injured, including a firefighter. The mill’s parent company mourns, while the community, deeply tied to the industry, grieves the loss of neighbors and coworkers. Cleanup crews are also working to prevent further environmental damage to the Columbia River. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
