      Join LA Waterkeeper, Hey Climate, and Patagonia Pasadena for PFAS Climate Night, an evening focused on the growing health and environmental risks of PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals.”

      By Katlyn Ong

      Note: This event was postponed from its original date in July.

      This event will bring together community members, scientists, and advocates to explore the science behind PFAS, discuss ongoing efforts to phase them out, and take collective steps toward a cleaner, safer Los Angeles.

      Event highlights include:

      • Small-group conversations facilitated by Hey Climate
      • Insights into Patagonia Pasadena’s efforts to eliminate PFAS from their products
      • Updates from Los Angeles Waterkeepers on PFAS contamination in the LA River
      • A screening of the trailer for How to Poison a Planet, a new documentary examining PFAS pollution
