‘Toxic chemicals in everyday life’ discussed Monday

All are invited to next week’s Liberal Arts and Critical Issues lecture event on  Monday, Feb. 24, when Jen Coleman, outreach director for the Oregon Environmental Council, speaks from 7 to 8 p.m. in Hoover 105. The presentation ties into our theme “State of the World.”

Coleman will present “Toxic Chemicals in Everyday Life,” in which she will discuss the fact that a wide range of toxic chemicals are measurable in the bodies of 97 percent of the U.S. population. Who is responsible for creating this chemical burden, and who pays the price? Coleman will discuss the current state of health science and policy initiative related to toxic chemical management.

The same session is presented from 4:40 to 5:40 p.m.; however, it is recommended that the general public attend the evening session, if possible.

Questions? Contact Paul Otto at ext. 2676 or potto@georgefox.edu.
