Luxury vinyl sounds fancy—until you learn it’s

Luxury vinyl sounds fancy—until you learn it’s made with cancer-causing chemicals.

From production to disposal, PVC plastic poisons people and the planet. It’s used in building materials like flooring and siding—and is often full of phthalates, flame retardants, and microplastics.

This week, our friends at @ToxicFreeFuture are turning up the heat at Home Depot’s shareholder meeting. Investors are voting on a resolution to reduce plastic pollution—and the pressure is on.

👉 Tell Home Depot: Break up with poison plastic and lead the way to safer, healthier alternatives.

NEW YORK - Long Island’s drinking water is

🚨 NEW YORK - Long Island’s drinking water is under threat as the EPA delays stricter PFAS regulations—despite growing evidence linking these toxic chemicals to cancer, immune disorders, and developmental harm.

💬 Jessica Varghese, PhD, RN, ANHE’s JEDI Committee Chair & 2023–2024 Nurse Fellow, is quoted in the article, highlighting the serious health risks of PFAS exposure and calling for stronger protections.

With the EPA also facing massive budget cuts, local leaders and health advocates are demanding action. Our communities deserve clean, safe water—not rollbacks.
