On this edition of Your Call’s One Planet Series, we’ll have a conversation about how the Trump administration's policies are impacting children’s health.
A new Union of Concerned Scientists report is sounding the alarm on how attacks on science are putting a generation of kids at risk, and how dramatically the administration has abandoned the mission of protecting kids based on the best science. What do we need to know? And what can we do about this?
Guests:
Gretchen Goldman, research director for the Center for Science and Democracy at the Union of Concerned Scientists
Genna Reed, lead science and policy analyst at the Center for Science and Democracy at the Union of Concerned Scientists
