Watch CNN's 'Toxic America' Special on June 2-3

June 3, 2010

cnn_sanjaygupta-1-ewg.jpgCNN's chief medical correspondent for its Health, Medical & Wellness unit, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, has put together an impressive 2-part investigative report on toxic chemicals in America. It airs this week, on June 2 & 3 @ 8 PM (EDT). He frames the series with a critical, timely question: Is enough being done to protect us from chemicals that could harm us?

Of course at EWG we know the answer is a resounding no. If you agree, sign our petition to Congress asking for a strong national chemicals law.

Join us on Enviroblog for an Open Thread during the June 3 show
We'll be watching live and hope you will be, too. Please share your thoughts with us and other Enviroblog readers as you watch. What did you learn? What changes might you make in your own life going forward? What did you think of the show?

In the June 3 broadcast, EWG President Ken Cook debates the head of a chemicals industry-funded front group, which should be interesting! Also included in the hour-long segment will be an interview with Healthy Child Healthy World founders Nancy and Jim Chuda.
