Deep dives
Contaminated air and water pose health risks in Maui
As residents of Maui return to the area after the wildfires, officials warn that the air may be contaminated with toxic compounds like asbestos and lead. Buildings destroyed in Lahaina, which were constructed before the 1970s, could potentially contain these dangerous chemicals. Residents are also advised against drinking tap water due to the possibility of contamination with other toxic organic compounds. The search for around 1,300 individuals who are still unaccounted for continues.
