Joy Ezell founded Hope in Taylor County Florida, an environmental group focusing on industrial pollution and public health, because she had come upon a health damaging problem in her community. Joy discovered that the Buckeye Cellulose factory, located in Perry, Florida (now known as Buckeye Technologies, Inc.), had poisoned the ground water throughout an extensive region in northern Florida. Buckeye produces bleached cellulose. Chlorine bleaching of paper pulp produces dioxins, which are discharged by the factory into the Fenholloway River. Working to warn the public about the dangers of drinking the contaminated water from residential wells, this organization has battled bad government at all levels. Joy is hopeful that an environmental revolution is not far off.
