  1. Please complete a survey on the chemical substance Attention, especially if you are "21-35-year-old young mothers and students" or "minorities (Hispanic and African American) and poor", according to the memo, these people are the special target groups of the BPA industry movement: If you pick up the phone and are invited to complete a survey on thechemical substance bisphenol a, or participate in a focus group, you may be witnessing the industry's "information testing" and "grass-roots promotion" strategies. If you are asked to "vote" on the "benefits" and health risks of BPA, I strongly recommend that you vote "no" for more exposure to unsafe chemical substances and for systems that provide us with safer chemicals. "Yes." Of course, we know that not all chemical companies that produce or use chemicals, or members of the American Chemistry Council, the North American Metal Packaging Alliance (NAMPA), or the American Grocery Manufacturers (GMA), support this approach to resolve our federal laws. Failure to protect the public from the hazards of unsafe chemicals. In any environmental or public health issue, there are industry leaders and laggards. A recent example of a leader is SC Johnson. This company responded to the Natural Resources Defense Council and other companies’ concerns about the use of phthalates in their air freshener products, and proactively disclosed their products in front of other companies. Ingredients used. Frances Beinecke, chairman of the Natural Resources Conservation Committee, praised Senator Johnson’s leadership in a blog post, which you can read here.

Complete information.

  2. But for SC Johnson in ACC, NAMPA, GMA, Consumer Professional Products Association and other key trade associations, we must dare to break their colleagues' position of the lowest common denominator (if there is nothing else to explain the lowest common denominator thinking, this memo ), not only do they need to actively reinforce the measures they have taken, but companies that are found to be considering strategies to scare or deceive young mothers and minority communities also need some negative feedback. The member companies of these industry associations need to be clear whether they support or oppose the strategy being discussed.
