More Bad Plastic News

Plastic is in the news again. Just saw this article in U.S. News & World Report about one kind - phthalates - that's found in PVC, cosmetics and other places.

The story says some scientists recommend that pregnant women, young children and couples trying to conceive should avoid them. There's also tips on how to do that.

We've already had a string on BPA in our forums.

Anybody else thinking about just tossing the rest of your plastics?

Yikes! That's pretty intense. We just try to be careful and as organic all around as poosible. ;)
Warmly,
