This is an ecological disaster that will keep on killing for years to come.
Even if it is safe for people to come back, and that is questionable, How do you warn animals that the air they breathing not safe.
People were evacuated, but what about the animals. They simply died when their world became poisonous.
The town and the people might receive compensation for the damage done. What about the animals, who compensates them for their losses.
