Who's responsible for cleaning up toxic chemical waste? | POISONED GROUND: THE TRAGEDY AT LOVE CANAL

Grassroots activism in Love Canal, New York opened American's eyes to the public health risks of unregulated industrial practices nationwide. After pushing Congress toward legislation that forced companies to help shoulder the burden of cleaning up the pollution they created—known as the Superfund Bill—Love Canal would become the first site identified for remediation. Official Website: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexpe... | #PoisonedGroundPBS In the late 1970s, residents of Love Canal, a working-class neighborhood in Niagara Falls, New York, discovered that their homes, schools and playgrounds were built on top of a former chemical waste dump, which was now leaking toxic substances and wreaking havoc on their health. Through interviews with many of the extraordinary housewives turned activists, POISONED GROUND: THE TRAGEDY AT LOVE CANAL shows how they effectively challenged those in power, forced America to reckon with the human cost of unregulated industry, and created a grassroots movement that galvanized the landmark Superfund Bill.
