*[http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=05%2F09%2F01%2F146226 "Toxic New Orleans: 'The Worst Case',"] Democracy Now!, September 1, 2005: "The Washington Post points out that New Orleans is now flooded by water spiked with tons of toxic chemicals and contaminants ranging from heavy metals and hydrocarbons to industrial waste, human feces and the decayed remains of humans and animals. Experts say the contamination will continue to poison the Gulf of Mexico region for more than a decade. A senior policy analyst at the Environmental Protection Agency told the Post 'This is the worst case...There is not enough money in the gross national product of the United States to dispose of the amount of hazardous material in the area.'"
