Our Daily Green frequently gets notes from our friends and readers about different groups trying to make a greener world. Today we'd like to tell you about the nonprofit group Healthy Child, Healthy World and encourage you to watch the video at the bottom of the post.
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit inspiring parents to protect young children from harmful chemicals.
Credible scientific evidence increasingly points to contaminants in our environments and toxic chemicals in everyday products as causing and contributing to many of these diseases.
