Totally Accidentally
And I’m sure the company will get off the hook
With a slap on the wrist……
Yup for sure
Don’t be silly. That 5,000 dollar fine will teach them a lesson!
Ohhhh that’s awful.😢😮
Where are the firefighters?
They are not shown
It’s a deep seated fire. It would require an unbelievable amount of water to even keep it from spreading. The fire department probably doesn’t have enough water supply to keep it from spreading. The other hazard is the toxic fumes that make fire fighting deadly.
They’re on vacation.
Corporate negligence? Just a “wild” guess.
How much are you getting paid to misdirect the gullible 🤔🤔
Dear God!
Those homes & [now homeless] Families!!!!!!😮😢
Richmond, VA?
We do not deserve this beautiful world.
Looks like something that was deliberately done . For places like that should have better maintenance and precautions . Reason I am saying deliberately is because there has been more of this happening regarding the fact there have been multiple cases and toxic leaks . What are they hiring ? The same kind of people that cannot point you in the right direction at Lowes and Wal Mart ????
It doesn’t matter who they hire if they don’t have the training and equipment they need.
Yep! Smdh
crazy that only ‘ teo ‘ fire trucks are fighting this masive blaze. why ?
STOP RECYCLING
the country is getting destroy from within😮😢😢😢 Ohio.. Texas.. Indiana.. just to mentiona few😢😢😢
Hey, those are red states… not too disappointed. Hexx, I live in Florida, I wouldn’t be disappointed if something occurred here. Not saying they deserve it, just that I don’t feel bad… I don’t really care. The state probably brought it upon itself.
Again again and again.
I guess the EPA will say they should have used electric cars then this would not happen didn’t this Warehouse have sprinkler systems in the building
Maki’n the world green by recycl….ing
It’s going to burn for a few days, that is insane.
Wow! I always wonder if there was any inspections by fire department and their reports before such a disaster. I am aware of how this works and it is high time the cities and states get some professional methods of prosecuting known hazards if they do not respond to inspection reports. It is sad indeed to see how disasters that can be prevented but are not because of destruction of gov services and corruption. No doubt the insurance companies may do a thorough study to get off the hook, but obviously that is not good enough.
Probably caused by someone putting the wrong thing in the recycling bin. I used to work at a recycling plant I hope the workers are okay.
There must be measures in place to avoid a disaster like this. It looks WAY more serious than a wrong thing put in a bin. This is serious incompetence.
Not a day without disaster
She must be a good woman, she puts up with you.. lol, just kidding, good luck to both of you…
Why are there so many of these types of incidents lately?
