Though incidents of cancer and birth defects were reported by people living around Love CanalNew York what finally led to government action?
The government action at Love Canal was primarily prompted by a combination of grassroots activism led by residents and mounting scientific evidence linking environmental contamination to health issues. In the late 1970s, residents, particularly Lois Marie Gibbs, organized to raise awareness about the high rates of cancer and birth defects in the area, drawing media attention. The increasing public outcry and alarm over the health risks, coupled with studies confirming hazardous chemical exposure, ultimately led to federal intervention, resulting in the establishment of the Superfund program in 1980 to address toxic waste sites.
