April 15th - Getting toxic PFAS out of MinnesotA
PFAS is a hazardous toxic chemical, causing cancers, fetal development issues, cognitive delays in children, among other co-morbidities. What’s more, they are permanent “forever chemicals”, and do not degrade over time. We are behind the cart in regulating these dangerous chemicals, and at this webinar you’ll learn how MCEA is addressing this at the legislature.

February 15th - Hold the salt, save our lakes
Even in a legislature with divided partisan control, the common sense approach of the smart salting bill has bipartisan support and a real chance to finally become law. Since one teaspoon of salt permanently pollutes five gallons of water, every teaspoon matters!
Our second in a series of legislative webinars will focus on the smart salting legislation, and will be held at noon on Tuesday, February 15th. RSVP, and bring your lunch Tuesday, February 15th. But hold the salt, please.
