Toxic chemicals used in plastics and everyday products are showing up in breast milk. A new peer-reviewed study found bisphenols, melamine, triclosan, and other endocrine-disrupting chemicals in breast milk samples.

As I say here, there is no scientific justification to revoke the engagement finding. In fact, over the last 15+ yrs, the evidence of how climate change affects our health has only grown. Higher risk of allergies, dementia, fertility, heart disease, and death: that’s what’s on the line. @nature.org

There is No Scientific Justification to Revoke the Endangerment Finding

The U.S. EPA's decision to repeal the Endangerment Finding will limit the government's ability to regulate emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.
