Bush to host G8 Summit in polluted region



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Sounds like there's even a political contributor working the paper mill nearby because they are even shutting it down to stop the air pollution that locals already know.

"President George Bush is to bring leaders of the world's richest to Sea Island next month to showcase his "environmental stewardship".

But the island - the most beautiful of the sub-tropical Golden Isles off the Georgia coast - is in one of the most polluted areas of the American South. Glynn County, which contains Sea Island - the site of next month's G8 summit - is home to 16 hazardous waste plants." - The Independent
