Hi all, Thanks for signing our petition asking Albertsons to phase out toxic chemicals like BPA.  They still haven't acted yet so this summer we are turning up the heat! We just released new research uncovering that Albertsons, Safeway, Jewel-Osco, Acme, Shaw's and related chains sell products containing toxic chemicals like lead, formaldehyde and parabens. We even found harmful chemicals in store brand products, such as sensitive skin body wash and kids’ bubble bath, distributed by their parent company Albertsons. Chemicals that can harm our families shouldn’t be lurking on store shelves. Other big retailers like Walmart, Target and CVS, are making meaningful progress in tackling toxic chemicals in products. In comparisono Albertsons still has no public safer chemicals policy in place and has given no public indication that it intends to develop one. Will you take a minute to call customer service for Albertsons, parent company of Safeway, Jewel-Osco, Acme, Shaw's and other grocers?  Ask them to turn up the heat on toxic chemicals. 1. Call (877) 276-9637. When you hear the recording, press 1. 2. You can use these talking points (and the info above). Feel free to put it in your own words and speak from the heart. • I’m concerned that your company sells products containing toxic chemicals that are dangerous for our health. • I want to trust that the products I buy from your company are safe. • Please develop a comprehensive safer chemicals policy to promote safer chemicals in all your products. Your company should be a leader on this important issue. Thank you! 3. Tell us that you made a call. Just send us a quick email to info@saferchemicals.org or you can let us know by filling out this simple form: http://org2.salsalabs.com/o/6639/p/salsa/web/questionnaire/public/?questionnaire_KEY=1297 Thanks for your help!  Together we can get toxic chemicals out of our products once and for all!
