This session explores that story, from the Love Canal disaster in New York to the company’s facilities in Montague. We will look at what was produced, how contamination occurred, and the long-term impacts on the environment and community, along with the lessons that still matter today.This program is presented by Tanya Cabala and Dr. Rick Rediske.
