Bisphenol A is found in plastic bottles and is carcinogenic. It is now ubiquitous. One of the problems in assessing the safety of chemicals is that we don't look at the cumulative effect of thousands of environmental toxins. Commonsense is needed in the US to stop approving chemicals that are not proven to be safe. Money trumps service.        

Planet earth is already massively polluted. "The Body Burden Study" is discussed. There are now 246 identified carcinogens identified by the government in our environment. Cumulative effects are very scary.
