Dear John,

Join us this week for the fourth episode of The Recovery Series, where we explore a range of topics and try to make sense of the COVID-19 crisis from an environmental perspective.

In the fourth week of our talk we explore how pollution, health and the COVID-19 pandemic are all interlinked. Every year, exposure to toxic pollution claims the lives of nine million people worldwide. By failing to prevent chronic diseases, we became more vulnerable to the full force of respiratory infection epidemics like COVID-19. Dr. Bruce Lanphear, Health Sciences Professor at Simon Fraser University, will be joining us to discuss why stronger toxics and pollution laws are urgently needed and how disease prevention can save tens of billions of dollars that can be re-invested in healthcare and cleaner production.
