Our new study just landed in @AguGeohealth!
Using community science, we find that many US households contain significant soil lead risks

Great news from the @EPA - new guidelines will help protect children from one of the most widespread sources of dangerous lead-residential soils
#leadfree
“EPA is lowering the screening level for lead in soil at residential properties from 400 parts per million (ppm) to 200 ppm”

"We have to make sure we aren't doing additional harm when we conduct our research. Ignoring these environmental harms just because it doesn't fit into our research scope is harmful." -Claire Hayhow #AAASmtg

I love this model! ⬇️

Listening - with the desire to be transformed, not to persuade - is part of the process of getting to equity.

"Activists and researchers have very different ways to measure success and this can provide tension in the relationship. How funders measure success is also a huge part of the equation" -Dan Brabander #AAASmtg

“Community members have power because they know where to find information, where things are going on, and they may know questions you have not thought to ask. That is also a form of power.” - Martin Lively, Local Environmental Action Demanded (L.E.A.D.)

Hot off the presses during @theAGU week, published in @AguGeohealth !

We assess community-based research in environmental justice, and provide guidance for academic partners to productively work to enhance community agency to solve significant issues

“I think justice is what [community members] are looking for. And I think you don't need fancy geochemical tools to find justice,” says @dbraband1.

Biden's plan to #BuildBackBetter must follow the science to address the threat of lead, and its disproportionate impacts on BIPOC communities #ES399 https://t.co/5J0TEBEbUK

[Sunrise Movement 🌅 @sunrisemvmt]

Biden & Harris promised to “Build Back Better", but to do that they'll need a team who represents the ambition of their vision.

We gave them a mandate on climate and we'll be here to make sure they fulfill it.
