Wal-Mart busted again for polluting rivers, oceans...

In 2001 Wal-Mart failed to control polluted runoff water at their sites. They paid a $1 million dollar fine. Think they learned their lesson? Yes.

Runoff water at construction sites carries pollutants such as heavy metals, oil and toxins into storm sewers, which evetually leads to polluting rivers, wetlands and oceans.

Instead of controlling water runoff at sites, big corporations such as Wal-Mart can continue to ignore the problem and just pay a fine instead of actually cleaning up the hazardous and poisonous mess they make.

Wal-Mart just paid a $3.1 million dollar fine for polluting with runoff water and promises they won't do it again.

Yeah, right. Just like in 2001. I'm sure.

Best line: A Wal-Mart spokesman said the company hopes to be a "trendsetter in environmental compliance."
