Homo Toxicus

Tuesday, April 10 – 7:00 p.m.

We are the guinea pigs. Chemical are being released into the environment, and we are bequeathing our toxic load to our children along with our DNA! This film explores the links between those toxic substances and some rising health problems. The findings are disturbing and strongly challenge our way of life.

The screening will be followed by a facilitated discussion.

Admission is free, with donations appreciated.
