The impact of the environmental disaster after 911 will continue for years. The health of those who were exposed to the toxic dust and told that the "Air was safe to breathe" and the continuing coverup of the problems has not been adequately reported in the mainstream media. Those who were most affected are often the least able to get the help they need.
