Tribune watchdog: Playing with fire -- Chicago Tribune

Tribune watchdog: Playing with fire -- Chicago Tribune

The average American baby is born with 10 fingers, 10 toes and the highest recorded levels of flame retardants among infants in the world. The toxic chemicals are present in nearly every home, packed into couches, chairs and many other products. Two powerful industries — Big Tobacco and chemical manufacturers — waged deceptive campaigns that led to the proliferation of these chemicals, which don’t even work as promised.

About Me

Nancy Swan
Toxic Justice is the true story of my toxic injury and battle for justice. As a result of my experience, I morphed from a middle school Home Economics teacher into a crusader for legal and judicial reform and accountability and an activist to protect children from chemical injury. I founded and serve as Director of Children's Environmental Protection Alliance (Children's EPA), an NGO for individuals, agencies, and organizations working together to prevent environmental and chemical exposure and injury to children. I am a writer, speaker, and host of Children's EPA Community Forums.
