SUMMARY:Season Change and Indoor Air: Protecting Respiratory Health
DESCRIPTION:Join the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and other leading experts for this webinar to learn about practical knowledge\, resources and tools to reduce respiratory health risks during high ozone and pollen events. Participants will learn how ozone and pollen exposures impact respiratory health\, how outdoor air pollution can influence indoor air quality\, and how evidence‑based indoor strategies — such as filtration and ventilation management — can help reduce exposure and protect at‑risk populations. Join us to learn how ozone and pollen exposures impact health\, who is most at risk\, and how practical\, evidence-based indoor strategies can reduce exposures and protect individuals\, buildings and communities during high ozone and pollen pollution events. \nSpeakers: \n\nBrent Stephens\, Ph.D.\, Professor and Department Chair Arthur W. Hill Endowed Chair in Sustainability Department of Civil\, Architectural\, and Environmental Engineering\, Illinois Institute of Technology\nAllison J.

SUMMARY:Reporting on Toxics & Health: Lessons from covering “forever chemicals”
DESCRIPTION:Accurate reporting on chemicals and health is more important than ever before. While science clearly links chemical exposures to many health harms\, this issue has become increasingly politicized. Petrochemical corporations often fuel the confusion and proactively manufacture doubt about the science. \nIn this webinar\, award-winning chemical pollution reporters Sharon Lerner of ProPublica and Stéphane Horel of Le Monde will discuss the importance of accurate local reporting on toxic chemicals. Focusing on PFAS “forever chemicals” as an example\, the speakers will explore the critical role of journalists in covering chemical health hazards\, public decision-making\, and industry strategies to influence both policy and science. \nRegister here \n
