We Need to Know More About the Chemicals in our Products!

chemistryflask_DainHubleyChildhood cancer, infertility, learning and developmental disabilities are rising at alarming rates. Studies consistently show links between toxic chemicals used in everyday consumer products and many of these negative health impacts. We can avoid these chemicals, but we need to be able to make informed decisions about the products we use.

Tell your State Legislators to give your family important information about toxic exposure by ensuring the Chemical of High Concern is voted on and passed this year.

Our Priorities

2013 Florida Priorities

  • 2013 Florida Priorities

    Clean Water Action asks that state policymakers continue to include public health, clean and safe water, and clean energy in the top tier of their 2012 Legislative priorities: 

    • Protect our Water: CWA calls upon state lawmakers to protect public health and our water quality from point and non-point source pollution. We need to dramatically reduce mercury, phosphorous, and other toxics from our ground and surface waters. Florida must set and enforce numeric nutrient standards to protect our lakes, flowing waters, and estuaries. Investments in water conservation programs should be high priority, as it is less costly to prevent pollution than to clean it up.
