Our Future Generations

Healthy Child
Tuesday, December 02, 2008

Christopher Gavigan, author and CEO of Healthy Child Healthy World, talks about the effects of toxic household products on children with learning or behavioral disabilities.

Today, the science shows us that there is a clear, direct link between chemicals and man-made toxins and the rise in illnesses and diseases. By removing chemicals from the home, Christopher saw immediate improvement in the children's health. Healthy Child Healthy World exists to give you information on how to create healthier environments for children. Actions we take today will affect our future generation

Educating kids on the dangers of chemicals is so important.  My 4YO and 7YO sons both already have the self-awareness to leave an area if their teacher is using a chemical product to “clean” a surface, and I’ve caught my 7YO lecturing an adult more than once on the dangers of chemical use.  If we teach our children appropriately now, they will do a better job taking care of the earth and themselves than previous generations.

Carlee, reusable water bottles made from polycarbonate plastic can leach bisphenol-A and single use water bottles made from PET can leach antimony. I encourage you to explore the rest of our site to learn more.

I can so relate to what you are saying. It’s not just about a safe world for us we must think of our future generations. Education is key. I’ve been educating the online community and I’m so glad someone on twitter introduced me to this site.
Keep up the good work,
Cindy McAsey
