What's orange, yellow, and pink all over? The month of October!  Fall's here with orange pumpkins, yellow leaves-- and the "think pink" campaign of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Everything is adorned with pink ribbons from yogurt cups to NFL football helmets. But our friends at the Breast Cancer Fund know that it's not enough to just be aware of breast cancer. We need to start preventing this disease and protect our families from cancer!

Please join MomsRising and the Breast Cancer Fund for a free and important webinar briefing to learn about practical ways to protect your family from cancer causing toxins. You'll also get the inside scoop on how upcoming legislation, California’s Green Chemistry Initiative, could address toxins in our state.

Join us! Space is limited to RSVP for this important webinar today:

LOCATION: Webinar-- click here to register!

Here in California, we have a chance to take a careful look at the connection between our health and the chemicals we're exposed to, thanks to the California Green Chemistry Initiative. The goal of the Initiative is to minimize or eliminate the use of cancer causing and other toxic chemicals in our everyday household products. But Gov. Schwarzenegger is starting to buckle under intense pressure from the chemical industry. He needs to hear that CA families support the CA Green Chemistry Initiative!

During this important webinar, we'll also give you an easy way to tell Gov. Schwarzenegger and our lawmakers to protect the public from toxic chemicals! You can make a difference! But we can't do it alone. Please pass this invitation along to your friends and family here in CA-- it's free and important.

Together we are a powerful voice for California's moms, kids and families!

[1] According to the Breast Cancer Fund, no more than 1 in 10 breast cancers are due to a genetic predisposition. Yet while chemicals linked to cancer are in many of the products in our homes, California is starting to cave to the chemical industry’s pressure to do nothing. The CA Green Chemistry Initiative would help strengthen our state's efforts at reducing our exposures to certain toxic chemicals. Learn more at the webinar:http://action.momsrising.org/go/442
