Americans are consuming more dangerous chemicals than ever before.
We help citizens fight against harmful chemicals in our canned food and packaging. We help consumers reduce their exposure to common contaminants, like mercury in seafood. And we go to court to make government and industry leaders address the dangers in our food supply.
What We're Doing
Current laws don't protect people from potentially harmful chemicals and additives. We're fighting to change that.
We've used scientific research and legal action to help remove millions of pounds of hazardous pesticides from the market.
