When the going gets tough, the tough get going. According to new research ADAO conducted, asbestos imports into the U.S. have surged by nearly 2,000 percent between July and August of this year. We don’t need to tell you that more imports means more asbestos exposure, more cancer, and more deaths. EWG and ADAO Press Release and Details.


We’ve never needed a no-exemption, no-loophole asbestos ban more than we do now. Setting an example for the rest of the world, Canada passed a nationwide ban asbestos earlier this week. Although it grants a 10-year exemption to the Chlor-Alkali industry, it is an important step forward.


Sign and share our petition to demand that the EPA do their job, protect our children, and ban asbestos NOW!
