Did you know that…

• In the 33 years since Congress passed that nation’s chemical regulatory law, the Toxic Substances Control Act (TCSA), the Environmental Protection Agency has required testing on just 200 of the more than 80,000 chemical compounds developed for products used in the home.
• Under the current law, the EPA does not have the authority to demand the information it needs to evaluate a chemical’s risk, and neither manufacturers nor the EPA are required to prove a chemical’s safety as a condition of use.
• 1.25 million kids younger than six are unintentionally poisoned in the home each year by things like cosmetics and personal care products, cleaning substances, pain relievers and cough and cold medicines (American Association of Poison Control Centers)
• Studies show that nearly 200 industrial chemicals and pollutants have been found in the umbilical cord blood of newborns (EWG).

Toxic chemicals are everywhere in our homes.  From the kitchen to the bathroom to the laundry room, our everyday lives are surrounded by products that contain chemicals that may have not even been tested.  The US Environmental Protection Agency only requires testing on 200 of the 80,000 chemicals on the market.   Seventh Generation is providing consumers with a way to help us demand change in the form of stronger chemical laws to help keep our families safe.  By joining the Million Baby Crawl, you can help babies everywhere initiate change by demanding toxic chemical policy reform from Congress.

Babies everywhere are crawling to Washington and saying “no” to toxic chemicals found in household products. Join the crawl and help Seventh Generation, maker of naturally safe and effective household products, demand change! Join the crawl.
