Tell EPA to Protect Our Waterways From These Toxic Plastic Chemicals

Dear ,

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to designate several chemicals used in making plastic as "High-Priority Substances" under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), the first step in EPA’s process in banning dangerous chemicals, if they are found to pose an unreasonable risk to human health and the environment after a comprehensive risk evaluation.

Will you take a moment to urge EPA to urgently evaluate the risks these toxic chemicals pose?

Each of the five chemicals proposed to be listed as high priority pose a threat to human health and the environment, and they are all involved in plastic production.  Plastics threaten the health of every living thing on the planet, and we urgently need to understand and regulate them better. 

It is imperative that EPA prioritize these five chemicals for review and address the unreasonable risk they have on the environment and our health.

Join us in urging EPA to protect public health and our environment from these toxic chemicals!

With thanks,

Thomas Hynes
