Abstract:
This book, produced as part of a service-learning project, is the second in a series of writings by middle and high school students from Ottawa County, a county that hosts the nation's largest and most dangerous Superfund Site, according to the EPA. Miami High School's Cherokee Volunteer Society became the first citizens' group in Ottawa County to organize a community response to their county's devastated environment and the health problems resulting from human exposure to toxic heavy metals. It is a good example of one of the products of an environmental service-learning project.
