You want an example of something toxic 1? Take a look over my shoulder here. That red sludge spilled out of a reservoir at an aluminum 2 plant on Monday. This happened in the European nation of Hungary. This stuff is toxic. Around 250 people had to leave their homes. The spill is being blamed for the deaths of four people. Yesterday, the sludge reached the Danube, the second largest river in Europe. Nic Robertson takes us on a tour of one of the villages that this toxic sludge swept through.


This is Devescer. This is one of the villages affected 3, and you can see where the red tide, the sludge got to. Right here, above, it's green. Further downhill, you've got the red sludge. And if you look over here right behind me, you can see these cleaning trucks going through the village, cleaning off the road, trying to keep the roads clean. But that's only a very small part of the cleaning process. As you come down the hill, further into the area that the red sludge, this toxic sludge hit, you can begin to see, you can see how the level rises against the side of the buildings over here. Everywhere you look in the village, the cleanup's going on. People coming out, gathering 4 whatever possessions they can get. This stuff here looks like flooring from inside the house right here. And look at the line, the red tide, on the house here. It's way above me. This is how high the red, toxic sludge came through here. People literally ripping up their flooring, taking it out, trying to salvage whatever they can
