The next Lifelong Learning Lecture features environmental journalist Sharon Udasin, co-author of Poisoning the Well: How Forever Chemicals Contaminated America .
She will speak on “an ugly history of corporate greed, military impunity and community devastation, based on original reporting in four highly contaminated places,” according to the Framingham Public Library event announcement. “Learn about the people who, while fighting for their own lives, take action to fix a broken regulatory system. And see evidence as to how PFAS producers were aware of the deadly risks for decades while the government failed to protect its citizens.”
The lecture is from 7 to 8 pm Sept. 4 on Zoom. Sign up for the Lifelong Learning mailing list to get the Zoom link: bit.ly/Lifelong-Learning-Lectures.
