February 7, 2011 Meeting

By Rubab Rehman

U.S Representative Steve Israel and Karen Miller, President of the Huntington Breast Cancer Action Coalition, spoke to teens about environmental hazards and their effects on human health at the February 7th meeting of the Long Island Teen Environmental Activists. The audience was comprised of students from Walt Whitman, Huntington, Syosset, andJohn Glenn High School. The Congressman’s discussion mainly centered in on the relation between the environment and the economy. Although most people would think that increasing the scope of environmentally friendly goods and services would be costly to us, the Congressman struck down this assumption and asserted that such action would actually expand the job market. Mr. Israel also emphasized his past policymaking record for consumer protection, such as enacting legislation to remove arsenic, a known carcinogen, from our poultry supply.
