Do you know a veteran who was poisoned while in the military? Or a worker who got sick from manufacturing or transporting chemicals? Or a person living in a community that is no longer livable? Pesticides, microplastics, PFAS chemicals, nuclear material and countless other toxic substances are disrupting the natural world and human health. It is easy to tunnel-vision on climate change and forget the need to restrict chemicals known to be harmful or are untested. Are any politicians unbeholden to corporations that profit from this plague? Join us to explore actions and legislative programs required to cope with the epidemic of toxic dangers.
Speakers:
• Paul Cox, Veterans For Peace Chapter 69 in Oakland CA
• Chris Albright, Justice for East Palestine Residents and Workers
• Tamela Trussell, Move Past Plastics
• Julio Cesar Herrera, The Black Institute NY
• Chibu Asonye, Illinois Green Party (Moderator)
