What are the specific circumstances of the illegal dumping of chemical waste in Zhucheng, Shandong Province?

According to official reports from Zhucheng City, Weifang City, Shandong Province, an illegal dumping of chemical waste occurred there, resulting in the death of four poisoned people. On the day of the incident, the poisoned persons were immediately sent to the nearest hospital for treatment. After intensive inspection by experts, it was determined that the poison was caused by toxic gases in waste materials dumped by the chemical plant. The poisoned persons received emergency treatment at local hospitals. Four of them had severe symptoms and died after ineffective treatment. The other poisoned patients were out of danger and are still under observation. When the public security department learned of the situation, it immediately set up an investigation team and classified the incident as a criminal case. The person in charge of the chemical plant has been controlled.

What is even more heartbreaking is that the four people who died from poisoning were a family of four, including an old man, a couple and a child. A total of 37 people were poisoned, and now the public security organs have arrested 16 suspects. Although all the pollutants at the incident site have been removed and the cleaning is relatively clean, who gave the company the courage to dump waste materials at will? How serious is the environmental pollution caused by dumped chemical waste? Have these wastes polluted soil, water and air? If it is really polluted, will it have any impact on the people living around it? Will those who were poisoned have any sequelae? These are current problems. Whether it is the relevant person in charge of the enterprise or the relevant departments, the final analysis is that the awareness of protecting the environment is weak, the awareness of waste pollution is not high enough, and the supervision of all parties is not in place, which has led to today's situation tragedy. When the reporter called the relevant departments for an interview, the answer from the relevant person in charge turned out to be unclear. It is not known whether the investigation process of the case has really not been released yet, or whether the relevant departments are careless and deliberately do not give an explanation to the public. That is unknown. .

Generally, waste materials from factories and enterprises need to be processed through special processes. If they are dumped or buried at will, it will cause great pollution to water sources, soil and air, and then affect the environment. Our own safety as humans. If the relevant departments do not introduce more severe punishment measures, then there will always be some companies that are frantically trying to pollute the environment. Only by severely punishing these talents who destroy the ecology and pollute the environment may it serve as a warning to all companies. Quit.

Protecting the environment is not something that can be done by one or two people, nor can it rely solely on the efforts of relevant environmental departments. Protecting the environment is something that each of our citizens should start from themselves, and enterprises and factories This relatively large-scale production should play a leading role in developing the economy without damaging the environment.
