WVE's first Water Cooler Chat is focused on mercury, which is a toxic chemical that affects the brain and nervous system and can be found in dental fillings, thermostats, fish, and other household products. On the call, you'll learn: how mercury gets into the environment how it gets into our bodies about the health impacts associated with mercury what you can do to limit your exposure And, of course, we'll leave plenty of time for you to ask any of your unanswered questions. We know that it can be confusing to figure out how to protect yourself and your family from toxic chemicals. Here's your chance to talk with the experts to get your questions answered, " de-mystify " the science, and take action on the issues that matter to you! Stay tuned for future WVE Water Cooler Chats! May:potential health hazards associated with disinfectants July: federal legislation to improve cosmetics safety October: unregulated chemicals in fragrances (in cleaning products and personal care products) and their impacts on women's health. We look forward to chatting with you this Wednesday!
