Blue Dye Spill in Jundiaí: Animals Stained, River Water Intake Suspended

In the city of Jundiaí, located in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, an accident occurred that caused significant environmental damage. On May 14, 2025, a truck carrying 2,000 liters of blue dye crashed, spilling its contents into a local stream. The resulting contamination turned the water a shocking bright blue and stained the feathers of several birds. "The water was completely blue, it was unbelievable," said a local resident who witnessed the aftermath. Authorities immediately responded, suspending water intake from the Jundiaí River as a precaution. The video footage shows the extent of the contamination, with dead fish and blue-tinged birds visible in the stream. While the authorities have rescued the affected animals, the full extent of the environmental damage is still being assessed. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences of industrial accidents and the importance of environmental protection.
