As recently as a decade ago it looked like undeniable that we’d be leaving the next generation a hefty toxic legacy. But now, if you look around the state, country and the world, bit by bit, law by law, company by company, we’re chipping away at that legacy and it’s actually starting to look like we could instead present future generations with a healthy tomorrow. We’ve got our work cut out for us to accomplish that goal here in Massachusetts, and on December 9th at the AHT annual event we going to get ourselves ready to wield our full power and make it happen in 2011.
- Get a peek at some of the inspiring films that have motivated thousands to take action on toxic chemicals.
- Take a step back with us to get the big picture view of AHT: where have we been and where are we going.
- Connect with people in your local area who care about these issues and put your heads together about how you can help AHT win in 2011.
Please RSVP today! (RSVPs appreciated but not required)
