Abstract
An Environmental History of PCB Contamination in the Hudson River aims to tell the story of how PCBS (polychlorinated biphenyls) entered the Hudson River, and to highlight the significance of this in the broader context of environmentalism in the United States. A unique historical perspective on the contamination allows this narrative to be expressed through a chronological history, which explores the nuances and consequences of the identification and subsequent remediation of the issue.
