EWG is all about giving you simple, easy ways to live a cleaner and healthier life.
To kick off the holiday season, we’ve compiled some of our top tips, including our 2019 Holiday Gift Box, featuring products handpicked by EWG scientists to help you make sustainable swaps in your daily routine.
To start, check out EWG’s groundbreaking report on PFAS chemicals in food wrappers. These common chemicals are used for their nonstick and grease-resistant properties, but some are linked to cancer and thyroid disease. Our Holiday Gift Box features a reusable sandwich wrapper and Food Huggers, so you can skip PFAS-laden disposable food wrappers.
EWG’s one-of-a-kind Tap Water Database catalogs more than 270 contaminants across nearly 50,000 water utilities from all 50 states. Check out our Water Filter Guide to find a filter certified to remove contaminants in your tap water, and use the Klean Kanteen stainless steel water bottle in EWG’s 2019 Holiday Gift Box to take your filtered water on the go.
Nearly 60% of kale samples were contaminated with a cancer-linked chemical, according to this year’s Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™. Consult EWG’s popular Dirty Dozen™ and Clean Fifteen™ lists to avoid produce with high levels of pesticides, then take home your healthy fruits and veggies with the organic cotton mesh bag in this year’s Holiday Gift Box!
