bioBag update

So here is the final list of products, and tags that we will attach to them, including QR codes (when photographed with smart phones will bring users to a website that will provide more information). I will bag and Will will photograph. In and out.

At this juncture, going after 3 biohazards: Pesticides, formaldehyde, and 1,4-dioxane

comments are most welcome.

1) Fruit/Veggie (not organic)

Produced with the use of pesticides. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 10,000-20,000 physician-diagnosed pesticide poisonings occur each year among the approximately 2 million U.S. agricultural workers. Visit http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/pesticides/



2) CVS Baby Shampoo (CVS/Pharmacy)// CVS Kids Body Wash – Blueberry Blast (CVS/Pharmacy)// Johnson’s Baby Shampoo (Johnson & Johnson Consumer Companies) // L’Oreal Kids Extra Gentle 2-in-1 Fast Dry Shampoo – Burst of Cool Melon (L’Oreal USA)//CVS Kids Body Wash – Blueberry Blast (CVS/Pharmacy)

This product contains 1,4-dioxane. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services considers 1,4-dioxane as reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen (cancer-causing substance). 1,4-Dioxane is is also resistant to naturally occurring biodegradation processes and has affected groundwater supplies in several areas. http://www.safecosmetics.org/article.php?id=426

This product contains formaldehyde. Formaldehyde has been classified as a known human carcinogen (cancer-causing substance) by the International Agency for Research on Cancer and as a probable human carcinogen by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Research studies of workers exposed to formaldehyde have suggested an association between formaldehyde exposure and several cancers. http://householdproducts.nlm.nih.gov
