The first Lead Safe Mama FREE, PUBLIC chat of 2023! A 1 hour 40 minute zoom session with Lead Safe Mama readers

For those new to this website:

Tamara Rubin is a multiple-federal-award-winning independent advocate for childhood Lead poisoning prevention and consumer goods safety, and a documentary filmmaker. She is also a mother of Lead-poisoned children (two of her sons were acutely Lead-poisoned in 2005). Since 2009, Tamara has been using XRF technology (a scientific method used by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission) to test consumer goods for toxicants (specifically heavy metals — including Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, Antimony, and Arsenic). All test results reported on this website are science-based, accurate, and replicable. Items are tested multiple times to confirm the test results for each component tested. Tamara’s work was featured in Consumer Reports Magazine in February of 2023 (March 2023 print edition).

January 11, 2023 — Wednesday

Hello all! I had so much fun today chatting with you, meeting everyone and answering your questions! (We had about 40 people on the zoom chat today — from ALL OVER THE WORLD!) People chimed in from California to Georgia and visitors in the background were from as far away as Vienna, Austria.

I’m sorry I did not get to each and every question (we ran over by 40 minutes!) but I promise there will be future opportunities. Here’s the video of today’s chat (posted on YouTube). Scroll down past the embedded video (below) to see a list of all of the articles and links to topics mentioned in today’s conversation (I will work on updating that over the course of the evening, too!) Note: There is a brief stop in the video at about 1 hour and 5 minutes in, but the connection is restored and the conversation continues after that! Thanks to everyone who participated and thanks for watching!
