What I often say to my audiences is that it is now time to play the Save the World Symphony. It is a vast orchestral piece, and you are but one musician. You are not required to play a solo, but you are required to know what instrument you hold and play it as well as you can. Because in the end, the environment is not just something else to worry about. It is connected to all the things we already worry about—our children, our health, our homeland—and love with all our hearts.

What she’s brilliant at — almost in a league of her own — is mixing personal passionate stories with totally comprehensive and accurate science. It’s not easy to make complex scientific issues interesting, but no one does it better than Sandra Steingraber.
—Jeff Cohen, director of the Park Center for Independent Media, Ithaca College
