Keeping Kids Safe from Chemicals

Ken Cook is the co-founder and president of the Environmental Working Group (EWG), a 501(c)(3) non-profit. According to EWG: We are at a tipping point where the pollution in people is increasingly associated with a range of serious diseases and conditions from childhood cancer, to autism, ADHD, learning deficits, infertility, and birth defects. Yet...the government has almost no authority to protect people from even the most hazardous chemicals on the market. Teri and Ken will discuss EWG's Kid-Safe Chemical Act. The EWG asserts that: ....pollution in people is the direct result of a statute that does not require chemicals to be proven safe to get on the market or stay on the market....The Kid-Safe Chemical Act will change all this through a fundamental overhaul of our nation's chemical regulatory law.
