概要
In this episode, we bring you two timely conversations with Vermont lawmakers on the state’s ongoing work to address toxic chemicals, and how those policies are playing out on the ground.
First, we speak with Representative Phil Pouech to discuss the proposed installation of an artificial turf field at Champlain Valley Union High School in Hinesburg. The conversation explores community concerns, environmental tradeoffs, and how Vermont’s new law banning PFAS in artificial turf is shaping the debate.
Then, we’re joined by Representative Mary Katherine Stone to discuss legislation aimed at reducing harmful contaminants in baby food, including heavy metals that can pose serious risks to infant health. She walks us through how these contaminants enter the food supply, what the bill would do, and why Vermont continues to lead on toxics reform.
Together, these conversations offer a snapshot of toxics policy in Vermont, highlighting both statewide legislative efforts and the real-world decisions communities are facing as those policies take effect.
