“…Beyond Toxics has been and continues to be, a very important community partner for the city of Eugene. They have weighed in on many, many important issues over the years. This is another one [gas stove research] where they bring incredible value to the city of Eugene, because they do this research, and they do the outreach, and it helps us, as we are trying to work on public policy. So I am here because this is an important partner who is doing important research. That is a value to the city of Eugene.”

“I feel like Beyond Toxics has given me an opportunity to know what this is something that I can do in the future and get involved with organizations like that as I get older. I want to play a role in activism in the future; it’s not like the need is going to go away. If anything, it’s going to keep getting worse if we don’t take action… I started to think more about our Earth and how it needs to be protected because there are generations to come that are going to live here and it needs to be safe and healthy for them.”
