Ecologist Dr. Sandra Steingraber will speak on environmental issues related to health in Samuelson Chapel at California Lutheran University at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday, Nov. 6.

A scientist as well as a cancer survivor, Steingraber is internationally recognized as an expert on the ecological links to cancer and reproductive health.

Her acclaimed book "Living Downstream: An Ecologist

Looks at Cancer and the Environment" presents cancer as a human rights issue. Formerly on faculty at Cornell University, she is currently Distinguished Visiting Scholar at Ithaca College in New York.

In her morning lecture, "Contaminated Without Consent: How Pollutants in Air, Food and Water Violate Human

Rights," Steingraber will discuss the ongoing revolution taking place in environmental health and the ethical and moral questions that emerge from it.

"The Precautionary Principle: Science or anti-Science?" is the subject of the afternoon lecture, during which the evolving relationship between science and precaution will be illustrated through historical stories-from rabies and cholera to antismoking laws and mercury-contaminated tuna.

Admission is free to this event, the 21st annual Harold Stoner Clark Lecture Series, sponsored by the department of philosophy. CLU is located at 60 W. Olsen Road, Thousand Oaks.
