Remember the Exxon Valdez spill years ago, and the big push everyone made to hold them accountable with fines and demanding cleanup action? I understand this case is not exactly oil spill level, it's very common on beaches even on the east coast, but the casual way it's received now is also the same way most environmental offenses go too.

Pretty crazy how far more significant environmental offenses happen globally, how even if a fine is paid, it's only the rain washing it down river that makes it seem forgotten, yet we're still blaming increasing cancer rates and deaths on diet and exercise, and thinking that amassing huge amounts of personal wealth is going to somehow insulate us from the same peril as everyone else... For the record, Steve Jobs, the extremely wealthy CEO of Apple... Died of cancer.

Companies and individuals that pollute should be held to higher standards.
