Dr Paul Connett

Speaking Tour of NZ 2013

Dr. Paul Connett is the Director of the Fluoride Action Network (FAN), and the Executive Director of its parent body, the American Environmental Health Studies Project (AEHSP).  He has spoken and given more than 2,000 presentations in forty-nine states and fifty-two countries on the issue of waste management.  He holds a bachelors degree from the University of Cambridge and a Ph.D. in chemistry from Dartmouth College and is a retired professor of environmental chemistry and toxicology at St. Lawrence University.  He lives in Binghamton, New York.  In his fascinating presentations Dr. Connett shares his wealth of information with you, bringing new research to light, including links between fluoride and harm to the brain, bones, and endocrine system, and informing us about how the evidence that fluoridation reduces tooth decay is surprisingly weak.

Prof Connett arrvies in Auckland on Sunday the 17th of February, departing from Auckland on Sunday the 10th of March.  He will spend the first two weeks giving talks in the North Island and the last week giving talks in Dunedin and Invercargill.

Public talks are being organised for Thames, Whakatane, Hamilton, Hawera, Palmerston North, Hastings, Flaxmere, Dunedin and Invercargill.

The Hamilton City Council are undertaking a special consultation with regard to stopping fluoridation and the Thames District Council are including the issue of fluoridation in their 2013 Draft Annual Plan.  Hastings and Whakatane District Councils are holding referenda in conjunction with the 2013 local body elections.
