You are invited to explore the world of unintended consequences of producing carbonless paper and its underlying chemistry of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) on the health of the Fox River and Lower Green Bay. Using an interactive timeline, this book by author Greg Neuschafer offers an overview of 70-years of PCBs impacting the river, from initial chemistry development through discovery of its toxicity, to societal mobilization, to the dozens of complex court cases, to government and contractor intervention including actual physical cleanup, and finally environmental recovery. Each page of this timeline and resource book folds out, and features QR codes (scannable with a smart phone) that direct you to selected original references in the electronic searchable library to begin your journey.
