Chemical study info and petition to sign!

[Guest guest]

Hello my health conscious friends,

 

I received the information included below in an e-newsletter that I

receive regularly. After reading the information on this " study " I

eagerly signed the petition. I hope you do the same.

 

Best,

Dear friend,

 

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)is seeking input on a new

proposed study in which infants in participating low income families

will be monitored for health impacts as they undergo exposure to known

toxic chemicals over the course of two years. For taking part in these

studies, each family will receive $970, a free video camera, a T-shirt,

and a framed certificate of appreciation. The study, entitled Children's

Environmental Exposure Research Study (CHEERS), will look at how

chemicals are ingested, inhaled or absorbed by children ranging from

babies to 3 years old.

 

Please take a moment to follow this link and join tens of thousands of

citizens in petitioning the EPA to terminate this study prior to its

proposed launch in early 2005.
