🚨 #BREAKING: Kentucky EEC Emergency Response Team (ERT) is on the scene of a crashed barge carrying 1,400 tons of toxic methanol that is submerged in the Ohio River.
Methanol is HIGHLY toxic and completely mixes with water. Municipal water intakes are just miles downstream.
The portion of the Ohio River at risk of contamination by this crash serves as the primary source of drinking water for millions of Americans.
The river has also been contaminated with toxic chemicals from the East Palestine crash.

God help Ohio. What a nightmare.
“WATCH THE WATER”
Methanol = YAWN…. It will evaporate and get diluted. Your hangover level from imbibing spirits is essentially tied significantly to the level of methanol that gets by the production processes.
