We made this world, and we could just as easily make it different:

“Train Derails In Michigan With One Car Carrying Hazardous Materials”

"Multiple reports say that authorities are responding to a massive train derailment in Van Buren Township, #Michigan. Only one car in the train was carrying hazardous materials, reportedly showing no sign of leaking or damage at this time. Authorities are asking people to avoid the area. The Michigan derailment comes less than two weeks after a train carrying toxic #chemicals derailed in East Palestine, Ohio.”

There may have been an article listing toxic train disasters on Counterpunch years ago. A search turned up this other valuable article.
> its not just oil company and carrier greed for cash generating cargo like fracked oil to blame for the current disasters, you can also chalk up the railroad’s desire to save just a little more fuel, at the expense of safety, for the mess we are in.
