Ep. 17 Petrochemicals

Petrochemicals are everywhere, but their use and manufacture involves highly toxic processes that endanger nearby communities across the globe. Gulf Streams host Dr. Weston Twardowski is joined by Chaney Hill (PhD Candidate at Rice University) to talk with Dr. Alice Mah (University of Glasgow) and Dr. Joseph Russo (Purchase College) about what petrochemicals are, how they impact local communities, and what organizers are doing to demand more responsible practices by industry around the world.
