À propos de cet audio

Once a thriving industrial hub in Brooklyn, the Gowanus Canal played a key role in New York City's development but suffered severe pollution from unchecked industrial waste. Declared a Superfund site in 2010, the canal is infamous for its toxic 'black mayonnaise' and high pathogen levels. Despite ongoing cleanup and revitalization efforts, it remains one of the most polluted urban waterways in America, symbolizing both environmental neglect and hope for renewal.
