Marine Pollution Book Event
Join us on Friday, March 21st from 6:30-8PM ET at Our House in Astoria for an interview and discussion with Judith Weis, author of Marine Pollution: What Everyone Needs to Know. Dr. Weis is a Professor Emerita of Biological Sciences at Rutgers University, an expert in the field of environmental pollution, and a longtime Sierra Club volunteer. Dr. Weis will be joined by Mallory Rutigliano, Vice Chair for the Sierra Club's Atlantic Chapter (NY) and Vice Chair of the Sierra Club Council of Club Leaders, and their discussion will be followed by audience Q&A. We invite interested Sierra Club members in NYC to RSVP to attend this event here - limited spaces available. Updated to reflect recent research, this book discusses the sources of marine pollutants, their effects on marine organisms and humans, and how to reduce or eliminate them. Weis covers the aftermath of oil spills in addition to "emerging" topics like flame retardants, pharmaceuticals, noise pollution, and PFAS. The event will be limited to registrants (so, please RSVP) and will be held at Our House Queens in Astoria.
