Kanawha Valley, or as the locals call it, Chemical Valley, is located just outside of Charleston, Kanawha Valley and is home to multiple chemical plants and the largest storage unit of deadly methyl isocyanate (MIC) in the US thanks to Bayer Crop Science.

Twenty years later after a chemical leak sent 130 people to the hospital, odors still foul the air and accidents are still happening, which is why Global Community Monitor came to introduce Bucket Brigades as an effective community-based method to monitor air quality and develop the evidence to fight for change.

For the first time with the help of Global Community Monitor, residents will have an opportunity to monitor the air during a horrible stench or an accident.
