Now that plastic has become a serious human health issue, the stakes are even higher.
This week on Green Street, Patti and Doug talk about a new court order forcing the EPA to regulate fluoride after studies show it lowers IQ in children, and how the loss of biodiversity threatens our own survival. Then Vito Buonsante, Policy Advisor for the International Pollutants Elimination Network (IPEN) talks about plastic, human health, and the worldwide effort to stop the relentless production of this life-threatening material.
