A living library on the harm of plastic and the case for safe food. We publish plain-language summaries of the science so families, schools and policymakers can act on it.
A growing body of research detects plastic particles in the most protected parts of the human body. Children — who eat, breathe and grow faster relative to their size — face the greatest exposure. We unpack what the studies say and what parents can reasonably do today.
Heat, oil and acidity pull additives out of plastic packaging and into meals. We explain which everyday habits raise the risk and which materials avoid it entirely.
Bangladesh banned thin plastic bags in 2002. We look at what worked, what didn't, and why affordable compostable alternatives are the missing piece.
Developing organs process toxins differently. We review why chemical-free, organically grown food is not a luxury for children but a safeguard.
Most air filters are plastic that's used once and thrown away. We look at the health case for cleaner indoor air and lower-waste filtration.
Notes from our R&D bench on tuning compostable film for Bangladesh's heat and humidity without sacrificing strength.
"Biodegradable", "oxo-degradable", "compostable" — only some are meaningful. A buyer's guide to telling genuine claims from greenwashing.
