Be inspired.

We’re thrilled to have Sandra Steingraber, biologist, award-winning author, and cancer survivor, speaking at Local Environmental Action! Sandra Steingraber writes about climate change, ecology, and the links between human health and the environment, calling us to political action. She is a co-founder of New Yorkers Against Fracking, a statewide coalition of more than 280 grassroots organizations, and the author of the highly acclaimed book Living Downstream: An Ecologist’s Personal Investigation of Cancer and the Environment, the first to bring together data on toxic releases with data from U.S. cancer registries.
