SUMMARY:Cary/Apex\, NC Impact Meeting w/ guest Regina Smardon
DESCRIPTION:Clean drinking water is one of life’s key necessities. Join TZW Cary & Apex to hear from Regina Smardon about her research on water contaminants and how under-sink filters are temporary but more sustainable than bottled water.\nAfterward\, we will share ongoing impact initiatives and discuss what you want to see happen. If you are interested in volunteering with TZW\, this is a good meeting to attend. If you have any questions\, please contact Andrea Rushing\, TZW Cary/Apex Community Director\, at andrea@towardzerowaste.org. \nRegister HERE. \nAbout Dr. Regina Smardon\nDr. Regina Smardon\, of Holly Springs\, is a sociology PhD who teaches statistics and sociology by day and studies data analytics by night. She is also a single mother to a lovely tweenage daughter who inspired her to get involved with environmental sustainability. All of Regina’s environmental and sustainability work has been a 100% volunteer effort. She has served on the board of directors for Sustainable Sandhills\, in Fayetteville\, NC for 4 years—3 as the Vice Chair of the Board. Regina then joined the Board of Directors of the Cape Fear River Assembly\, as the mid-basin representative\, for 3 years. While on the executive board for CFRA Regina served on committees that planned the annual CFRA conference (inviting speakers like Dr. Jamie Dewitt of ECU and Dr. Detlef Knappe at NCSU to talk about research on the Cape Fear River basin). She also served on the committees planning community forums on Drinking Water Quality and Climate Resilience Planning up and down the Cape Fear River. Regina started the SWWWAG (SouthWest Wake Water Advocacy Group—focused primarily on Holly Springs and Fuquay Varina) FB group in February 2020 to connect local communities to issues affecting the whole water basin. In 2021 Regina added the title of breast cancer survivor to her list of accomplishments and this has increased her passion for environmental health issues (especially hormone disruptors). Dr. Smardon is currently grant writing with Dr. Jamie Dewitt from ECU and Beth Markesino\, Executive Director\, of Stop GenX in Our Water to study the distribution of under-sink drinking water filters in New Hanover County (Wilmington Area).
