Feast and Forum

Friday, August 3, 6 p.m. in the Program Room

This month join Dr. Theo Colborn, from The Endocrine Disruption Exchange, as she presents the potential health hazzards to regions where oil and natural gas are being extracted (like San Miguel County).

Theo Colborn, PhD, president of TEDX (The Endocrine Disruption Exchange) in Paonia will present "What You Need to Know about Natural Gas Development and Delivery." The presentation takes a look at the various stages of getting natural gas out of the ground and to your homes. Dr. Colborn will speak to issues relevant to citizens and the environment in San Miguel County. She will present what TEDX has compiled about the products and chemicals involved and their possible health effects. Emerging evidence will be presented about the possible immediate and long term impacts of water and air pollution resulting from natural gas activity. TEDX's goal is to educate and empower citizens, communities, policy-makers and those involved in protecting public health and the environment.

All are welcome.
