Americans are divided on practically every issue, both big and small. While the nation has been enthralled over whether transgender people should be able to use their bathroom of choice, three nuclear disasters brewing in America’s background have gone virtually unnoticed by the mainstream media.
One nuclear disaster awaiting to make national headlines is a fire at Bridgeton Landfill in Missouri, which has been burning for five years. In spite of this prolonged period of time, officials have not been able to contain the fire. The situation has grown so dire that St. Louis County officials have contrived a backup plan as the fire approaches the nuclear waste dump.
