Money that "the responsibility of running a railroad" requires, is stolen, paid to shareholders.
Money paid to the railroad to transport safely, as its contracts, its advertisements, as its regulatory forms, as its convenant with the nation itself, and the railroad's promise to our communitees, requires, stolen, given to shareholders.
Stolen from families like teeth. Their health and peace of mind.

Hundreds of tons of #vinyl #chloride were released in this #Ohio #train #derailment. #Burning it produces more toxins. In addition the train was carrying #butyl #acrylate, #benzene, #ethylhexyl #acrylate, and #ethylene #glycol #monobutyl #ether.
This is an #environmental and #health #catastrophe of major proportions, and it can’t just get swept under the rug.

Nice to see my friends Lilia Leisle, Alessio Accardi, Chris Ahern and more teaming up! Here, CLC-type ion channels, widely responsible for #chloride balance, were subjected to unnatural amino acid #mutagenesis. In a subtle example of the genre, the peptide backbone was changed at individual sites by introducing alpha-hydroxy amino acids.This showed that backbone amides coordinate permeating chloride ions.

Salt is killing our watersheds.
Application of brine is one way to reduce road salt application. Our watersheds are paying the price of over-application of road salt and its good to see heavy users look to ways to reduce application.
NY State DOT has initiated salt reduction programs, and a component of these is pre-storm application of brine for anti-icing.
This is a photo of brine pre-treatment on I-90 in Minden on 15 Nov 22.
