Who shouldn’t take a hot air balloon ride?
When traveling (whether in the U.S. or abroad) how can travelers vet the safety of hot air balloons?

Seeking advice on how to respond to allegations of harmful products
I’d like to hear from crisis management experts with the advice they’d share for companies and organizations that come under attack for unproven allegations that their products are unhealthy or harmful.
