Hazardous Waste Drawing

By Sahiti Namburu, Terra Linda High School

This drawing of hazardous materials and symbols is inspired by Julie Pettijohn's seminar, Dangerous Materials: How California Protects Communities and the Environment from Hazardous Waste. Julia has an MPH and CIH for California Department of Toxic Substances Control. During this seminar on September 25, she shared her experience of becoming a program manager in this department and showed the different types of hazardous/dangerous materials frequently found and dealt with. This illustration incorporates some toxic items that should be disposed of correctly. The purpose of the piece is to raise awareness about the dangers of hazardous waste to the environment.
