Not yet, at least. Can you think of anything more despicable than seeking to profit from a disaster that has destroyed so many lives and irreparably damaged the environment? I certainly can’t. As we near the Feb. 27 trial date in New Orleans, I anticipate that we will all grow increasingly disgusted by the evidence that surfaces as to how one of the wealthiest, most powerful corporations in the world caused the worst oil spill in U.S. history and then perpetrated one of the biggest coverups in recent times. Stay tuned.

But listen to the national political conversation and it sounds as though America would like to forget that the BP oil disaster ever happened at all, never mind that it's still being suffered today. Take for example the Republican presidential primary debates and President Obama's recent State of the Union address.

As the EPA readies a long-awaited report on a class of health-damaging pollutants known as dioxins, we look at the biggest industrial dioxin sources in the U.S. -- and find that the South bears a disproportionate toxic burden. Six of the nation's top dioxin-emitting facilities are in Alabama, five are in Louisiana, four are in Texas and three are in North Carolina. Is there one near you?
