Radioactive Fire with Just Moms STL’s Dawn Chapman
In this episode of Breaking Green we talk with Dawn Chapman, Co-Founder of Just Moms STL.
Radioactive waste from the building of the first atomic bomb sits in a landfill with a below ground fire. Dawn Chapman, who was featured in HBO’s Atomic Homefront, tells Breaking Green how the EPA is again delaying removal seven years after agreeing to a new cleanup plan pressured by the community.
Dawn and other activists from the region promise more pressure as they plan a trip to EPA headquarters as time runs out for a community they say is besieged with illness and childhood cancers.
