Last week, a barrier that cotained toxic fluids broke in Brazil taking these fluids to one of the most important rivers we have here (Rio Doce). It formed a toxic mud and took over cities nearby, destroying them and killing people.
This mud contains metals such as mercury, lead, barium, copper, among others. Itās said there is mud enough to fulfill 20 thousand olympic pools.
This river is now officially dead, forever. The whole ecosystem of the area is destroyed. Animals are dead and some species might be extint. The mud keeps going through the riverās course and itās said itās gonna get to the seacost, also destroying that area.
Another barrier is starting to break and it is 5 times bigger than the first one, which means the damage will be bigger.
Cities nearby, such as Governador Valadares, ran out of water system. Mariana, another city, is also going through a hard time. Other cities are said to be destroyed forever.
The biggest problem of all is that Brazilian media wonāt talk about it. This huge ambiental crime is under Valeās responsability. Vale is a multinational private mining corporation and they have a huge power over media.
Regular brazilian citizenships have no idea of how huge the situation is, as the media makes it seem like it was just a little accident.
People are dying, people are suffering, a whole ecossystem is dead. This is the largest ambiental accident in the history of Brazil.
We need help to show the world what our media donāt want our people to know.
