    I’m all for reducing harm from these toxic substances, but are there any studies showing these substances pose actual risk under normal use?

      Studies paid for by the industries that profit from pollutants all show those pollutants are safe yes. First day in the western world?

        Ok but what about the studies showing they’re unsafe? It’s easy to be scared of scary sounding chemical names and allege they could cause cancer or infertility or whatever, but I am asking for the evidence where these substances have actually had a measurable or observable effect, whether it’s cancer or infertility. As it is this article sounds like the same people on social media claiming that all our foods are killing us unless we only eat organic non-GMO.
