This photo taken with a drone shows portions of a Norfolk Southern freight train that derailed Feb. 3 in East Palestine, Ohio were still on fire on Feb. 4.

Chris Bowers, professor of chemistry at Ohio Northern University and law professor David Raack share their expertise on the East Palestine train derailment in Ohio and its chemical consequences.

Then, Jeff Hatten, professor of forest soils at Oregon State talks about carbon storage in soil. Soil is the Earth’s second-biggest carbon storage locker after the ocean. This research shows that moisture in the soil is the key to how well the soil carbon warehouse works.
