Movie Screening and Panel Discussion around “Dark Waters” – The Business and Societal Impacts of Drinking Water Contamination

March 24th, 2021 @ 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm

Join us for a discussion on “Dark Waters,” a movie that focuses on the business and societal impacts of drinking contaminated water. This event aims to raise awareness of the impacts of chemicals of concern, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), in our drinking water and how organizations can move away from the use of toxic “forever chemicals.”

Moderated by Natalie Jackson, MBA Candidate at Havard Business School, the event will include a panel discussion featuring Dr. Joseph Allen (HSPH), expert witness in the ‘Dark Waters’ case, along with Harvard environmental health leaders, Dr. Elsie Sunderland (HSPH & Harvard SEAS) and Heather Henriksen (Managing Director, OFS).

Register for the panel using a Harvard-affiliated email address to receive advanced viewing access to the 2019 American legal thriller film, “Dark Waters.”

Open to the Harvard community who register with a Harvard affiliated email address.
