Stink!
The movie the chemical industry doesn’t want you to see
This Friday, January 5th, 2024
Zoom Opens at 7:15 pm, Program at 7:30 pm Pacific Time
Zoom Link: us02web.zoom.us/j/86311256046?pwd=VFFIdGl2QmN0ZExVL3hCMWdiamE1UT09
Meeting ID: 863 1125 6046
Please join us this Friday for a documentary about the chemical industry's aggressive efforts to conceal the thousands of potentially toxic ingredients contained in everyday products. The documentary opens with single father Jon Whelan opening a brand-new package of pajamas he bought for his young daughters as a Christmas gift. He is troubled when the packaging releases a foul odor. Determined to uncover the source of this mysterious stench and whether it poses a health risk to his daughters, Whelan quickly discovers that manufacturers and retailers in the U.S. have no obligation to reveal the chemicals used in their products, even if those chemicals can cause cancer, birth defects, and reproductive damage. Stink! takes you on a journey from the retailer to the laboratory, through corporate boardrooms, down back alleys, and into the halls of Congress. Follow Whelan as he clashes with political and corporate operatives all trying to protect the darkest secrets of the chemical industry.
Before the film we will hear from the cofounders of the Fragrance Free Coalition (FFC), Sherrie Pace Truitt and Andi Platts, and see how to use the Fragrance Free Coalition web site. After the film we will have a discussion including a member who has chemical sensitivities and allergies; then show how to find the least dangerous cosmetic and skin care products.
Don't miss out on this event! Mark your calendars for Friday, January 5th 4th, at 7:15 pm Pacific Time, and join us on Zoom. Remember to turn on your camera to connect with like-minded activists who share your passion. Additionally, we'll be making announcements about upcoming events and actions you can take to make a tangible difference.
Zoom doors swing open at 7:15, and the main event kicks off promptly at 7:30. Prepare to be captivated, inspired, and part of an impactful film event that will leave you feeling empowered.
