EWG's Tips for Parents: The Series
We're excited to tell you about our new Healthy Home Tips for Parents email series!
EWG's scientists and public health researchers created a list of the most important steps you can take at home to promote your family's environmental health.
We squished it all onto 1 page so it's easy to use, but for each tip there's additional information that we think you'll appreciate knowing - the why's and how's that support our recommendations.
Tips for Parents in your inbox
Every month we'll send you a tip from our priority list, along with our reasoning and suggestions for carrying it out. We'll start in June with choosing better personal care products.
If you're ready to get started right away on the path to a healthier home, download the 1-page tip sheet now on our For Parents web page. And while you're there, check out some other resources for parents, like our video on choosing the best infant formula and our safe fish list.

Great! I can't wait to see your first issue. I hope you guys tackle some of the horrible nutrition information that is out there. Our society seems to be addicted to sugar and carbs and ignores the truly heatlhy foods (veges, good fats, and pastured protein)!
I will wait for first edition

Interesting! We'd like to promote it - let me know if we can!

I tried to send this to someone and it would not let me send it out. Not sure why. I copied the letters it said to copy and it would not go.
