We are allowing Big Corporations and Dirty Energy to destroy our environment, contaminate our drinking water. 



A spill in southeastern Illinois involving more than 48,000 gallons of what appears to be diesel fuel has spread to the Ohio River, the Drinking Water supply to hundreds of thousands of people.
Marathon Pipe Line LLC is investigating whether the fuel is from its network and has shut down its Two Rivers pipeline system as a precaution.
The fuel sheen was first spotted Sunday near Mount Carmel, Illinois, along the Wabash River separating Illinois and Indiana.
The pipeline operator says that by Tuesday morning, the sheen had spread more than 100 miles to reach Smithland Lock and Dam on the Ohio River near Paducah, Kentucky.
