Sponsors for insights museum STEM

Today's politicians and scientists should follow NASCAR's drivers' example and wear sponsors on their jackets. 

 

I sights museum gives dino track tours over land historically exposed to smelter wastes and its illegal toxic wastes 1992-1998.

When Insights takes folks on dino track tours, online it seems no one talks about the arsenic and other toxic wastes that historically exist within at least 3   miles of asarco's smelter. Or, the illegal haz wastes burned at asarco from 1992-1998 per EPA and U.S.DOJ.   

But, this site is promoted by scientists who ARE aware of the toxins.  These people should disclose these toxins to people before asking them to sign a waiver, imho. 

Children are short and lower to the ground contamination; and to any off-gassing. They also have greater surface area to body ratio.  Their parents may not realize the land is toxic according to EPA proposed superfund area and how much further toxins travel. 

To go on the tour everyone must sign a waiver

I hope the guides are instructing folks to stay as safe as possible. To this day the dioxin levels have not been disclosed. Lead, arsenic, beta radioactive particles, maybe actinides...  After living in smelter toxic shadow people give up and go with the flow, figuring it wont get them sick, maybe someone else. 

If you want to teach science, you need to teach scientific method, and that begins with asking honest questions to seek factual answers, not political ones.
