Union Carbide made a lot of money off of Carbide Willson's patent for calcium carbide production. The company would later be taken over by DOW Chemical in 1999 for $8.89 billion.
Churchill Falls power plant is the 2nd largest in North America, and makes almost 1% of the world's hydroelectric power. It isn't your typical dam, but a series of dikes that direct water to a natural reservoir/lake (the generating plant is underground). It's a very controversial facility for many reasons: it flooded the traditional hunting and trapping grounds of the Innu people (and was built without their consent) and it's been at the centre of a centuries-long argument between Newfoundland/Labrador and Quebec.
* Correction: The footage shown at 5:03 to 5:06 is actually Chicago—the result of a mislabeled bit of archival.
