*[Enwl-eng] Demand justice for 12 dead and hundreds poisoned by plastic plant

[ENWL]

            A gas leak killed 12 people and made hundreds sick, but it 
easily could have been prevented. Demand justice!

                 Vladimir,

                  Residents of Viasakhapatnam in India woke up in the middle 
of the night on May 7, 2020 to a white mist that choked them, made them gag 
and burned their eyes. The mist was a dangerous neurotoxin leaked from a 
local plastic factory and it poisoned the air within a two mile radius, 
ultimately claiming 12 lives and sickening hundreds of people. Now it has 
come to light that this plastics factory was not up to code, and should not 
have been operating in the first place. Sign the petition asking for a 
federal investigation into why LG's plastics factory was allowed to operate 
without clearance!

                  Due to expansion of their operations, the electronics 
company LG was required by law to file for a federal environmental 
clearance. But they never did. Instead, they decided to illegally cut 
corners and only obtain permits on a state level — which require far fewer 
safety checks and assessments. Now, 12 people are dead and it's partly 
because this industrial heavyweight was too lazy and cheap to ensure their 
safety.

                  This cannot stand. LG prioritized monetary gain over human 
lives and the health of our planet, and they must be held responsible. 
Demand a federal investigation into why this LG factory was allowed to 
operate without federal permits, so that they are held accountable and also 
so that this dangerous loophole is finally closed!

                  Thank you,

                         Kelsey B.

                  P.S. 12 people died just because this corporation was too 
lazy and cheap to pay for proper safety precautions. Sign the petition for 
accountability.
