What Can I Do?
Learn About Environmental Illness
The first step is to inform yourself about environmental illness.
Be Aware
Be aware of the choices you make in location, life style and product use, and how these choices effect you, others, and our environment. Recognize that many places, foods and products today contain substances that can harm healthy adults. Learn to recognize and avoid environmental pitfalls, one step at a time.
Speak Up
Speak up in daily conversation about the benefits to human health of a clean and non-toxic environment. Speak out on issues that have negative health impacts such as chemical treatments, pesticide use, incineration, petroleum fuels, mould and ventilation problems, fragrance products, heavy metals, food processing and additives.
Support Each Other
Support each other in positive and healthy choices for yourself, your family, your workplace and your community. Do not believe something is safe because it happens to be available for your use or purchase. Most toxic products are not regulated for the Health and Safety of the general public, or for individuals.
