Yeah this sucks.
And they've known about the dioxin leaks for how many years? At least since BEFORE the Sydney Olympics!

Stayed at Rhodes during the Olympics and it was a short walk down to the harbour. I saw signs saying no fishing due to contamination even then, same thing all the way to Homebush , so its not surprising that the contamination has spread.How long before the whole local food chain is affected?
Very Sad, also very sad is that the culprits probably just walked away .
