Callous Crooks Dump Asbestos in High School

Remarkably there are still people in the world who do not realise the deadly dangers of asbestos,or perhaps they do and they just don`t care, as they still continue to dispose of it in a  completely reckless fashion.Here are three recent news stories from around the world.

The first article is the most shocking case
  “A New Mexico company has been accused of illegally disposing a substantial amount of asbestos in a number of illegal locations, such as HIGH SCHOOL dumpsters, an auction yard and other public locations, which could possibly expose an unknown number of people to deadly asbestos fibers.”

Here`s another story from the Daily Mirror in England.

A Grandmother of 66 was jailed for nine months yesterday for dumping 3,000 tons of toxic waste.

“The Skip/dumpster hire boss made staff bury asbestos to cut costs, heard Exeter crown court in England.

When officials were tipped off she tried to blame staff. Her son,aged 40, who jointly ran the  Skip/dumpster Hire company in Devon, was fined £7,750.

And finaly from the US
“A report from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency has revealed that 37 bags of asbestos were dumped in a vacant home in the city and a further 23 bags were dropped near a garage. An investigation to find the dumpers is continuing, but it is  believed that the waste came from a big building complex that used the asbestos as an insulating material,as there was too much waste dumped to have come from one family home.”
