We must demand a healthy environment for ourselves and for our children.

Joel Shufro, Executive Director of the New York Committee for Occupational Safety and Health
(I have) urged the EPA to acknowledge the emerging science on the health effects of PCB exposure, and apply the precautionary principle to protect school employees, teachers and children who work and learn in these buildings."
David O. Carpenter, Ph.D. at University of Albany
"There is no safe level of PCBs for kids to breath. PCBs must be removed from our nation's schools."
