Environmental Protection Agency Reporting Rollback Threatens Reproductive Health [USA]

Nearly 38 million pounds of toxic chemicals, known or suspected to cause reproductive disorders, were released by U.S. companies into the air and water according to a report released yesterday by Colorado Public Interest Research Group (CoPIRG). "These toxic pollutants are the worst of the worst and pose tangible threats to public health that must be addressed," said Kirpal Singh, the group's staff attorney. [T]he Toxic Pollution and Health report may be the last complete analysis of its kind since the Bush Administration drastically reduced the standards by which companies will now self-report emissions data on more than 600 toxic chemicals.
