Since 2012, the Environmental Health Project (EHP) has defended public health in the face of shale gas development. To kick off a year-long celebration of our tenth anniversary, we hosted a public health summit titled Shale Gas and Public Health: Translating Science into Policy.

This event featured four subject matter experts in various areas: child health and development, endocrine disrupting chemicals, environmental economics, and environmental justice. These guest speakers presented information from their own work, co-led breakout sessions with members of EHP’s policy team, and participated in a panel discussion with EHP’s executive director to highlight themes and insights on how to approach meaningful, effective, and just policy decisions related to shale gas development.
