The Nexus Between Environmental Health and Social Justice Discussion with Dr. Jimena Díaz Leiva on the health and environmental impact of fracking, forever chemicals, flame retardants and glyphosate. We discuss how trade secrets are being utilized to protect against disclosure of all toxic chemicals in fracking, the exemptions the industry obtained from environmental laws and how the First Amendment is being utilized against mandated government health warnings for glyphosate. We also discuss the tobacco and chemical industries’ deception respecting flame retardants and how CEH worked to ban flame retardants in children’s products, mattresses and upholstered furniture in CA. Additionally, we discuss the nexus between environmental health and social justice and the importance of fostering community partnerships and citizen science.
