#DPR takes important step to further protect people from #pesticide chlorpyrifos… New recommendations include no aerial spraying and buffer zones… See details at bit.ly/2OMuCT9

The problem is so much bigger than just the EPA's refusal to ban chlorpyrifos. huffp.st/MJwV27A

Ban entire pesticide class to protect children's health, experts say. Organophosphates (OPs) increases the risk of reduced IQs, memory and attention deficits, and autism for prenatal children. theguardian.com/environment/… #ecofriendly

.@NDeNicolaMD, assistant professor of #obstetrics and #gynecology at #GWSMHS, recently published an article in @ContempOBGYN on toxic environmental exposures in maternal, fetal, and #reproductivehealth: bit.ly/2Opgh2M

Excellent summary by @washingtonpost on how environmental #toxins like pesticides, perchlorate, and phthalates pose a risk for pregnant women. The tips at the end of the article from @ProjectTENDR are great, too! washingtonpost.com/national/…

RIGHT NOW @EPA is holding a public hearing on the #CensoringScience rule, which would allow the agency to exclude research that shows the health impacts of #pollution because the studies include confidential patient information. #ScienceNotSilence

Who is at risk of climate change?
Everyone.
Pregnant women and children are most vulnerable to toxic environmental exposures like air pollution, extreme heat. #EarthDay #ClimateChangesHealth @WHO

Scientists agree: toxic chemicals like organophosphate pesticides, chemical solvents, PCB's, and lead have harmful effects on the developing brain during pregnancy #EarthDay #HealthNotToxics

A new TEDX study finds that prenatal #BPA may be linked to #hyperactivity in children. A #systematicreview of over 30 studies found that BPA is a presumed hazard. We recommend further regulation of BPA and protection of #pregnantwomen and #children #ADHD bit.ly/2nECrj4

Great article about our just-published review of #BPA and #hyperactivity. Makes no sense that Europe recognizes BPA as a harmful #EDC but the US says it's safe. Let's all start working to be @EDCFree. xitter.cf/EnvirHealthNews/status…
New #science review says BPA likely culprit behind hyperactivity in kids. How this flies in the face of a recent statement on the chemical's safety from the @US_FDA. Story on the review & FDA statement backlash fm @BrianBienkowski ehn.org/does-bpa-cause-hyper…
