    Garden Grove’s chemical emergency is a warning for other communities near plastics factories

    A cracked chemical tank at GKN Aerospace in Garden Grove prompted evacuations, highlighting risks from the plastics supply chain.

Similar accidents in other U.S. locations, including a Delaware River chemical leak, emphasize systemic vulnerabilities.
