À propos de ce contenu audio

 When a fire at the BioLab plant in Conyers, Georgia, sent a toxic cloud of smoke across the community, residents were left to wonder what they had been exposed to and what it would mean for their long-term health. One year later, many of those questions remain unanswered. In Manufacturing Danger: The BioLab Story, GPB’s Pamela Kirkland follows residents through the aftermath, while uncovering new details about what was happening inside the plant. Former employees describe ignored warnings, and whistleblowers raise questions about the response to the disaster. In Season 2, the podcast pieces together what could have been done to prevent the fire. It follows the ongoing health fallout, examines why critical response tools were never used, and reveals how BioLab’s little-known parent company is more familiar than most people realize.All Rights Reserved. © 2025 Economie Politique et gouvernement Science Sciences sociales

      When a massive chemical fire broke out at the BioLab plant in Conyers in September 2024, the EPA had a tool: a plane, capable of mapping the toxic plume in real time. But it never left the ground. GPB's Pamela Kirkland has more.
