Review the video : Love Canal: A legacy of doubt

Review the article: Rosenberg, D. (2003). Love Canal's long shadow 25 years later: Twenty-five years later, another New York town turns toxic.

After you have watched the video and read the article, answer the following questions.

1. How did the Love Canal incident influence the way we deal with toxic waste in America?

2. Do you think that the area around Love Canal should have been inhabited after the cleanup? Would you move into such an area? Why, or why not?

3. What does the Blake family's story indicate about the effectiveness of our hazardous waste regulations? What more should be done to prevent situations like Hickory Woods?

4. Discuss your thoughts on how the health issues experienced by the Hickory Woods and Love Canal residents should impact regulations. When public health impacts cannot be definitively linked to contamination, how should the government respond?
