Chicago 2-11 Alarm fire, 11-5-17 (more)

Here's a report from Josh Boyajian:

Yesterday, the 3rd Battalion returned to the ruins of 2-11 and encountered a fire in the D-side exposure building located at 693 N. Milwaukee. Fire companies responded to a blaze on the third floor. They initiated an interior attack but were forced to retreat and transitioned to a defensive position. The following units were on scene: E14, E30, T19, T3, S1, BC3, RIT T32 & BC1, 271, 5-1-5, and 2-2-1.

Below are some photos taken by Josh Boyajian at the scene:

The scene was intense with multiple units responding to the fire, and it appears that the fire was significant enough to require a defensive approach. These images give a glimpse into the effort and coordination involved in such a response. Stay tuned for more updates as the situation develops.

Natural Rubber Sponge Series

Our G5 series natural rubber foam is made out of natural rubber harvested from rubber trees, plant-based and latex-allergy friendly natural rubber rather than the traditional petroleum-based and limestone-based neoprene. Compared to the traditional neoprene sheets, the natural rubber wetusits production process saves up to 80% on CO2 emissions in one wetsuit. And our all G5 rubber plantations are 100% FSC® certified. FSC® certified means that buying your new G5 natural rubber wetsuit does not contribute to deforestation, human right violations or abuse of agricultural pesticides. It also means that the hevea rubber – the main ingredient G5 natural rubber foam is only extracted from plantations that preserve ecological integrity and biodiversity. Though only 4% of global rubber plantation area is currently FSC®-certified, well-managed FSC®-certified forest management has the potential to affect a positive environmental and social transformation of the natural rubber sector.
