It looks like California is relatively clean on this scale, but what about the Superfund sites? I feel like those are gray areas that get much less attention than I would expect. With former semiconductor fab sites and former military sites getting increasingly developed with sometimes only a few feet of topsoil removed for cleanup (plus some kind of shielding material?), and a seeming lack of hard data for long term health impact, count me among the concerned.
(happy to have my worries put to rest by HN'ers!)
- seanp2k2 10y agoYeah, can't wait for them to try bringing manufacturing back to America. Hopefully California will shut anything like that down.
- neohaven 10y agoBecause having it elsewhere is better? Here we'd have the resources to hopefully make it safe(r). China doesn't give a damn about the environment.
