Hydrogeology, Geology, & Environmental Issues

A collection of Web sites dealing with the history of Love Canal and associated activities over the years.

Love Canal is a remediated hazardous waste site in Niagara Falls, New York. Due to its geographical location just across the Niagara River from the Niagara peninsula of Ontario, Canada, and its historical context, Love Canal is significant in terms of environmental politics and sustainable development. This is especially the case with respect to the so-called not-in-my-backyard (NIMBY) syndrome (i.e., firsthand opposition to locally unwanted land uses), the antitoxics movement, and its transformation into the environmental justice movement, especially in the United States but also in Canada. It has had an important impact on environmental laws, regulations, and policies at.
