“There’s a staggering number of contaminated sites around the Bay,” says Baykeeper scientist Ian Wren. And many of these sites, including the highly contaminated #BayviewHuntersPoint neighborhood in San Francisco, are susceptible to sea level & ground water rise, as Knee Deep Times reports:

The Navy has finally acknowledged what scientists and residents have suspected for years: that toxic groundwater could surface at the Hunters Point Superfund site in SF.
The soil at Hunters Point is contaminated with radioactive material and other toxic substances. That the site could flood from the ground up is terrifying, to say the least!

A rendering plant that we caught polluting #SFBay a few years back is releasing such a foul stench in #Bayview that people get nauseated when they try to go outside.
"A nuisance like that does cause emotional stress, which is direct and highly damaging to the body," said Dr James Dahlgren, but "the real problem with #BayviewHuntersPoint is that's just one of many adverse problems they have—it's a terribly toxic place." https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/climate_change/how-company-key-to-climate-change-fight-harms-sf-residents/article_96535584-7672-11ed-9d9f-fb89db674837.html
