EPA designates 2 forever chemicals as hazardous substances, eligible for Superfund cleanup. Move follows restrictions on PFAS chemicals in drinking water announced last week. My @AP story apnews.com/article/2a88bf…
How an incredibly lucky, pig-headed boat captain became the only person the AP found to reach a settlement after alleging the Deepwater Horizon cleanup work made him sick in a suit against BP. With @travisloller apnews.com/article/gulf-s…
Courts wouldn't accept plaintiffs' experts and attorneys had a hard time handling the massive case load. Of thousands of people who filed claims, the AP found one person who reached a settlement after filing suit.
A claims process was supposed to provide that ease for workers. But many claims were rejected and the majority who were paid received no more than $1,300. A key court ruling, however, threw thousands of others into federal court. Workers faired particularly badly here.
Workers were exposed to oil and a chemical called Corexit used to break up the oil. Studies found workers more often had breathing issues, skin rashes and other problems. To address this, BP agreed to a settlement that was supposed to compensate people quickly and easily.
In 2010, the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill erupted. Thousands of people helped clean it up. Some got sick and a settlement was supposed to help. In reality, many got little or nothing. Story with @travisloller and some details apnews.com/article/gulf-s…

California can't solve the climate crisis on its own. We need to bring our red-state neighbors along for the clean energy ride. Is that even possible? I spent a week in rural Montana trying to find out, joined by ace photographer @rgaut999. Here's what we learned... 🧵1/
