I just learned of your upcoming meeting regarding Environmental Contaminants from a friend who lives in Piedmont. I was wondering if you’d like brochures to be made available for distribution to all attendees. I am a volunteer with the Environmental Health Network and have brochures on the topic of the harmful health and environmental effects of fragrances and also on improving indoor environments.

Certainly, to learn to look for products that do not contain the word “fragrance” — even if it has “unscented” or “fragrance free” also on the label — is actionable and easy to do. To eliminate these volatile organic compounds may be a major step in improving health, not just respiratory but also the entire body.

Fragrance concoctions are derived from petrochemicals and contain PHTHALATES. Fragrance products outgas from the user to affect the air that we all must breathe.

Please let me know if you’d like to have brochures for your attendees and if so, how many.

Thanks for your time . . . I hope I can be of some help to you for your meeting.

Sincerely,
