ULI Western New York: Fall Fireside Chat with Lois Gibbs

In the late 1970s, Lois Gibbs, with no prior activism experience, fought for the evacuation and cleanup of her community after discovering that her Niagara Falls neighborhood sat upon chemical waste - now known as the Love Canal. Her work during the Love Canal crisis brought national attention to toxic waste issues, efforts that were pivotal in shaping environmental activism and policy.
