‘Forever’ Chemicals

🗓️ Start: Wed 10 Jun 2026 10:30 am
⏳ End: Wed 10 Jun 2026 12:00 pm

‘Forever’ Chemicals, otherwise known as PFAs, are a large group of synthetic organic compounds that have been around – literally – since the 1930s, when they were discovered, quite by accident, to be useful raw materials in the manufacture of plastics. Today, the problem of plastic pollution is a familiar one, but the PFAs themselves pose an even more insidious environmental threat: not only are they almost indestructible, but they’ve been found in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the soil we grow crops on, and even inside living organisms – including us! In this thought-provoking talk, David McLellan from Torridge u3a will describe the history, the chemistry, the risks we face, and what – if anything – we can now do about it.

The Middle East Crisis: Stepping Back from the Brink

🗓️ Start: Thu 21 Nov 2024 10:30 am
⏳ End: Thu 21 Nov 2024 11:30 am

A year on from the brutal Hamas incursion into southern Israel, the bloody chain of events it triggered has left tens of thousands dead across the region, and has brought Israel and its arch-enemy Iran to the brink of war. Diplomacy has failed, peace talks have stalled, and now the impending return of Donald Trump to the White House has added even more uncertainty to this seemingly intractable crisis. So is there any hope of avoiding what some are already calling a new Armageddon. What do you think? Why not join us for an hour of lively discussion about this most divisive of issues.
