LJI 10:10 - take a hike

[az_starshine]

When I was a senior in high school in the fall of 1996, I began to learn about how political grassroots movements worked. The county was planning to put in a landfill on Graham Road, only a few miles away from where we lived

How frustrating and awful. Sometimes things don't work like planned, but the responsible thing is to own the mistake and fix it, not just "oh well" and pass the issues on to others.

Very timely and also personal; good post!

That is so appalling. It's not as if she poisoned her own groundwater. :(

We have areas in California with problems similar to Flint, including being unable to bathe children in tap water because the chemicals in it burn their skin. Not sure if it's because of big agriculture or what, but it's unbelievable to me that we let that happen.

It's so sad for that lady and for the government to just not care!

Creative insertion of the prompt! This is a sad testimonial. :(
