Toxic Chemicals in Our Food System
What chemicals are in the food we eat? Chemicals are used in every step of the process that puts food on our table: production, harvesting, processing, packing, transport, marketing and consumption and can be dangerous to our health.
Fracking and Air Pollution
A growing body of scientific evidence links the fracking boom with serious risks to air quality and health.
Most Vulnerable Populations
Certain populations are more impacted by toxic chemical exposures than others. And they need greater protection from dangerous chemicals.
Environmental Threats to Brain Development
Scientists have long known that low levels of exposure to toxic chemicals and other environmental factors affecting the mother, lead to modest impacts on brain development in a fetus and a growing child. However, recent studies reveal so many children are affected that the harm to our society is anything but modest.
