Plastics + Health: What You Need To Know

Plastics + Health: What You Need To Know In-Person

Almost every bit of plastic breaks down into “microplastics.” Documentaries such as Plastic People show how these microscopic particles drift in the air, float in all bodies of water, mix into our soil, and end up in our bodies.

Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Rochester, Dr. Jane van Dis, will present on the prevalence of plastics and the effects that plastics and the chemicals inside them have on our health. This talk will address key scientific findings and offer insight into ways to protect ourselves and our loved ones. A Q&A session will follow Jane’s presentation. This event is co-sponsored by Color Webster Green.
