Event Description
In partnership with Habitable we are thrilled to share this invitation to our undergraduate student-led webinar presentation on safer alternatives to hazardous chemicals found in building insulation. With the support of many partners and collaborators, these students spent the semester learning about green chemistry, hazard assessment, environmental justice impact, chemicals policy, and technical performance metrics in order to create products that are safer for humans and the environment. Come learn from them and celebrate their hard work this semester!
This webinar is free and open to anyone to join. Visit the following Zoom link at the date and time of the event to join: https://berkeley.zoom.us/j/93812801092
