DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: A Chemical Reaction - Free Screening! =0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.artsboston.org/event/detail/440911111=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2010-09-16=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2010-09-16=0D=0A=0D=0AAfter winning flm festival awards from Florida to Montreal, “A Chemical Reaction” will be presented at a special one-night showing at The Regent Theatre in Arlington on September 16th at 7:00 PM. The feature documentary tells the story of an unlikely community initiative in Hudson, Quebec started with one lone voice.  In 1984 Dr. June Irwin, a dermatologist, noticed a connection between her patients' health conditions and their exposure to chemical pesticides and herbicides.  She brought her concerns to town meetings that lawn chemicals posed severe health risks and had unknown side effects on the environment. Dr. Irwin's relentless arguments and persuasive data eventually led the town to enact a by-law that banned the use of all chemical pesticides and herbicides.  The most mighty chemical companies in North America pushed back with their full legal weight on the tiny town. This set off a chain of high-profle court cases that culminated in the Canadian Supreme Court in 2001 with startling and industry-changing results.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:7:00pm
