This week on Protecting our Public Health Sharity Ludwig continues her dive into this month’s topics of fluoride! She is joined by Dr. Effie Greathouse who is an environmental scientist. Effie shares her story with us and information about her website.
” We are a non-profit and the work we are doing to change the conversation online towards science is powered by supporters who have donated, who have shopped our science and fluoride gear store, and who have joined our members program, Team Truth. Folks can sign up for our email newsletter, come like and follow us on Facebook and Twitter. I would love to plug and pitch these ways for your listeners to join us and help us do more to reach new online spaces with fun and science-based information about fluoride, oral health, and water.”

Quotes
“It was a very frustrating experience, I was seeing all kinds of misinformation and conspiracy theories”
“I was seeing my science, the science of water quality, stream conservation science being misused to undercut science from the CDC and ADA”
“I think there were a lot of people that take from granted turning the tap on and don’t think much about the impacts that water use was on our stream ecosystems”
“I was seeing people concerned about something that I am not concerned about as a professional scientist in the field of water quality”
“We are really trying to throw open the doors to all of the science topics that relate to fluoride”
“We are trying to bring that gap and have articles that really go in depth, but a written in a fun conversational way”
