Health risks related to exposure include cancer and cancer-related mortality, neurological damage, growth defects, DNA damage, endometriosis, and disruption to reproductive, immune, and respiratory systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"x_MsoNormal\"><b>Support our work over the next four months to conduct research and educate community members on this project!<\/b><\/h4>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">We believe that the City of Greeley should pause the development of this facility in order to better understand residents&rsquo; preferences for waste diversion options before proceeding with a costly, polluting &ldquo;chemical recycling&rdquo; project. <strong>We need to raise $3,000 to keep our work going over these next critical few months.<\/strong> With your donation, Eco-Cycle will organize a campaign with partners Mi Familia Vota and Green Latinos, <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">expanding upon the public outreach and education that we&rsquo;ve already been doing while developing various ways for Greeley residents to contact their elected officials. <a
