Humanity urgently needs solutions to our environmental problems. For decades, EHS (Environmental Health Sciences) has provided information in support of regulatory reform and community members, toward the goal of reducing chemical exposures and better health.
Those approaches are necessary but insufficient, given the urgency of our predicament. We need new materials and new methods, across all commercial and industrial sectors.
To accelerate this, EHS works directly with businesses and public sector organizations that are developing and providing those new materials and methods. We connect with leaders, engineers, R&D scientists, packaging experts and other professionals who are committed to a safe, healthy world. Our involvement ranges from high level principles for design to diving deep into the implementation details that often derail good ideas.
Leadership
Leading this effort is our Director of Solutions, Matt Kayhoe. A long time consultant to EHS, and to many industries and social sector causes, Matt comes with decades of experience building alignment for change in complex situations. He also specializes in the development of non scientific capabilities for scientists – leadership, communications, career management, self management, and similar. Having worked in a variety of settings including labs, manufacturing plants, and executive suites, Matt’s comfortable in just about any setting and with just about any challenge.
