Chemical Spills
A chemical spill occurs when hazardous substances accidentally leak or are released into the environment. This can happen during transportation, storage, or usage and may involve liquids, solids, or gases. Chemical spills can have serious health and environmental impacts, contaminating air, water, and soil. Emergency response teams typically assess the situation, contain the spill, and clean it up to minimize damage. Awareness and proper handling of chemicals are crucial to prevent spills, protect public health, and safeguard ecosystems.
