Almost 3,000 people died in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. How many more will die from the toxic exposures engendered by the World Trade Center collapse and fires? The media has recently reported several 9/11-related deaths, and thousands of New Yorkers are now chronically ill with problems that include severe asthma, lung disease, gastrointestinal symptoms, unusual memory loss, rashes, and joint and muscle. pain. Following 9/11, banners and bumper stickers appeared everywhere saying that the heroes of 9/11 would never be forgotten, but now all too many First Responders and others find their lives a nightmare as they struggle virtually unaided to keep working while suffering from devastating health problems.

Endorsements for "The Toxic Clouds of 9/11":
I wish every politician and policymaker could see this moving and powerful film. It is a wake-up call. Thousands are already sick and thousands more may become ill in the months and years to come. As a nation, we have the moral and ethical obligation to mobilize the resources necessary to respond effectively to this looming public health crisis.

This compelling film will help people understand the very serious health impacts caused by exposure to the multiple chemicals contained in the 9/11 pollution and the devastating effects that these illnesses have had on people’s lives.
