Environmental Emergency
Permalink  
 


Last night there was an explosion on a gasoline refinery here in Puerto Rico.  There has been cities that had to be evacuated and many people with respiratory issues are being treated.  The fire is still going strong.  They say that it has to die on its own so they are trying to keep the others tanks from exploting.  So far 15 tanks have exploted.

Anyway I am 2.5 hours away from the place air quality is going to get worse all over Puerto Rico.  You should google the images.  Theya are impressive.  They are doing an investigation since two weeks ago 17,000 government employees were laid off so they do not discard the possibility of any criminal intend.

I'll keep you all updated.
