Learn more about the TVA coal ash spill

On December 22, 2008 a coal ash spill took place at the Kingston Fossil Plant, a Tennessee Valley Authority generating plant. Truly, the stories that have come out since that morning have shown what sort of environmental catastrophe we are dealing with.

For some of the best coverage of this issue, I urge you to check out our friends at App Voices who are waist-deep in this issue (literally). They have done an amazing job covering every angle of the story since the dam broke. They have even created a website to specifically cover the TVA spill, which includes photos and videos. Below is one video taken on the Emory River documenting the spill and the lack of any clean-up by TVA.

Our respect and admiration go to App Voices and all who are involved in telling the truth about the spill.
