Virtual: Poisoning The Well — How Forever Chemicals Contaminated America

Author Sharon Udasin will discuss her new book, Poisoning the Well: How Forever Chemicals Contaminated America. Learn how PFAS — a set of toxic chemicals most people have never heard of — poisoned the entire country. Based on original, shoe-leather reporting in four highly contaminated towns and damning documents from the polluters’ own files, Poisoning the Well traces an ugly history of corporate greed and devastation of human lives.
