BREAKING: Tesla did a whoopsie at their Fremont factory and polluted a bunch of water (pretty bad) and they can't keep it contained to their property. Levels of major pollutants massively over what's legal. Huge mess, no surprise. Link below is to a PDF. www.envirostor.dtsc.ca.gov/getfile?file...

Not to be That Guy, but I put out the warning about this back in 2022. I only had docs then that showed part of the problem with PCE, far from the whole picture, but literally nobody reported on this. Also, these were PUBLIC DOCS POSTED ONLINE. Not exactly All The President's Men shit.

I assume they're using perc for brake cleaning, unless they're dry cleaning his clothes. I started my career doing pump tests of groundwater at closed dry cleaning plants and that stuff is nasty and very toxic. I am surprised/not surprised they're using it.
