Bovinity is a series exploring environmental degradation due to industrial pollution. After reading an article put out in the New York Times that investigated DuPont, a chemical company that had a factory in a small town in the east of the States. The factory was located next to a river that ran through farm land and forest. When a farmer started noticing his cows becoming sickly and dying, he thought about the factory up the river.
