This minor incident, which... «Stark»
Williwaw7 июня 2011This minor incident, which at the time was entirely overshadowed by the World Cup, concerned the accidental discharge of thirty tonnes of toxic waste into the Rhine. Of course, thirty tonnes doesn't sound that much — the lead singers of heavy metal bands can sometimes weigh as much as that - but the seriousness of a toxic leak depends entirely on how toxic the leak is. Well, in the case of Sandoz, the words 'very, very' spring to mind, and then spring out again as being scarcely adequate. And then spring back again for the want of a better alternative. Put it this way, if the universe is very, very, big, then the Sandoz leak was very, very toxic. That thirty tonnes leaked from one factory, into one river, swept through France, Germany and Holland and killed every single living organism in its path.
