Toxic Gumbo: Louisiana's "Cancer Alley"
BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA - OCTOBER 12: A chemical fog hangs in the horizon and the nearby fields of River Road in Port Allen October 12, 2013. 'Cancer Alley' is one of the most polluted areas of the United States and lies along the once pristine Mississippi River that stretches some 80 miles from New Orleans to Baton Rouge, where a dense concentration of oil refineries, petrochemical plants, and other chemical industries reside alongside suburban homes.
