The Commission for Environmental Cooperation just released a new map layer for Google Earth that allows users to explore pollution data from over 30,000 industrial facilities in North America. You can learn about the pollution profile of each facility, including which pollutants are generated and how the facility handles them. There a quite a few along the Northwest coast, almost all lumber or pulp mills. Check what chemicals Georgia Pacific is releasing off the coast of Oregon.
