Leonardo DiCaprio’s latest film, 11th Hour, is a documentary on the sorry state of the global environment. And it features a well-known scientist from HCN’s hometown, Paonia, Colo.

Theo Colborn, PhD, runs a nonprofit that educates the public about the dangers of endocrine disruptors. These chemicals, found in many consumer products, can harm human health and reproduction even in very low doses.

The film opens nationally this week; check it out. The Detroit Free Press says it “provides good advice and an abundance of well-considered ideas from forward thinkers of all stripes and persuasions who refuse to give up hope.”
