Why Brazil Sank Its Own Aircraft Carrier At Sea #shorts

Brazil’s Navy sunk its aircraft carrier São Paulo in the Atlantic ocean this month, ending a saga over what to do with the decommissioned ship. The vessel is full of toxic and dangerous material, including tons of asbestos, used in the ship's paneling, and no country - including Brazil – would  let it dock in their ports. Environmentalists are outraged, some calling it state-sponsored environmental crime.
