Greenpeace blocks shipments of vinyl chloride outside Pittsburgh Paint and Glass (PPG). They have locked a school bus to railroad tracks leading into a plant entrance as a protest against the three toxic waste incinerators that PPG has operated on an illegal interim status for 16 years. PPG is responsible for hundreds of industrial accidents.
