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?
