Clean Air & Water Show: Learning how to combat pollution with community-based solutions

The League of Women Voters of Glen Ellyn is teaming with SCARCE to hold an informational event titled: “The Clean Air & Water Show” on Thursday, April 4.

It will be held from 7 to 8 p.m. as a live event at the SCARCE facility as well as via Zoom.

Attendees will learn about the importance of clean air and water and solutions regarding how to safeguard these resources here in DuPage County. Members of the community are invited to attend. More information and registration is available at lwvge.org.

The program will be held at SCARCE, 800 S. Rohlwing Road in Addison.

The League of Women Voters Environmental Committee worked with SCARCE, long known for its commitment to sustainability, to put together the program which features presenters Kelly Nichols from the Respiratory Health Association and Andrea Densham of the Alliance for the Great Lakes. They will explain these challenges and share pollution solutions as well as engage with attendees and field questions.

The program will also be available to watch live via Zoom. For more information and to register for a Zoom link, residents should visit lwvge.org. The program will also be recorded and be available on the LWVGE’s YouTube page.

“Water and air are without question the most important elements in our environment to protect. Period,” said SCARCE founder Kay McKeen, co-host of the event. “Many people don’t understand that these resources are currently under threat right here in DuPage County.”

“The League feels it’s important to bring challenging content regarding the environment to the community,” said Barbara Kwiatkowsky, the Glen Ellyn League’s co-president. “We believe this program will all help us understand the steps needed to protect these essential resources.”
