@HEJ_Support @WECF_INT @EuropePAN and the German NGO Forum on Environment and Development stress that #EDCs remain global environmental threat that requires international action

#GAHHPs is a voluntary initiative that includes all relevant actors, working together, to achieve targets related to #HHPs under the #GFC. Many NGOs have proved experience of promoting pesticide-free alternatives in various regions @ToxicsFree @CEJADKenya @EuropePAN

A remote island with no industry, no factories, and a population of just a few dozen people now has the highest recorded #PFAS levels in public drinking water in Scotland https://t.co/bjaMKJe9VR

[HEJSupport International @HEJ_Support]

Communities living near incinerators—often low-income and overburdened by pollution—should not become testing grounds for #PFAS disposal https://t.co/UqWBo081jx

Between January and April 2026, parallel projects were implemented in Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan by @ToxicsFree NGOs to address the unregulated circulation of #phthalates and #bisphenols in plastic products #PlasticsTreaty #EDCs

[Olga Speranskaya @OlgaSperansk]

As countries work to address #EDCs, this research provides evidence for:
• addressing chemicals as groups;
• considering mixture effects in risk assessment;
• improving transparency about chemicals in products;
• avoiding regrettable substitution @CEJADKenya @ToxicsFree

[Olga Speranskaya @OlgaSperansk]

The @ak_action authors call for bans on hazardous additives, greater #transparency, reduced #plasticproduction, and a strong Global #PlasticsTreaty #ChemicalSafety #ChildHealth @CEJADKenya @LifeWoutPlastic @ScientistsCoa @HACplastic

[HEJSupport International @HEJ_Support]

New @ak_action article: toxic chemicals in plastics, including phthalates, bisphenols, and flame retardants, are linked to neurodevelopmental harm in children #PlasticsTreaty #ChemicalSafety #ChildHealth https://t.co/lBNMjGEK5K

[HEJSupport International @HEJ_Support]

A new study found that mixtures of #bisphenols are more toxic than #BPA. This reinforces growing concerns about regrettable substitution and the need to address chemical groups #EDCs #GFC https://t.co/IdLoUa8jOr

[HEJSupport International @HEJ_Support]

A new @ESDO @ToxicsFree report raises alarm over widespread exposure to #Phthalates and #Bisphenols in #plastics—#EDCs. Stronger chemical transparency, disclosure, and regulation are needed #PlasticsTreaty https://t.co/DgJzvdOcCK

[HEJSupport International @HEJ_Support]

A toxic industry shut down in Europe over massive #PFAS contamination is now operating in India using the same machinery and producing the same “forever chemicals”. Communities in Maharashtra are protesting while India still lacks specific PFAS regulations https://t.co/f0qkcOuUw1

[Olga Speranskaya @OlgaSperansk]

Chemical pollution in Bangladesh is becoming a #publichealth and #climatejustice emergency. Prevention, transparency, and stronger chemical governance are urgently needed @esdobd @brsmeas @minamataMEA #watersafety @hrw @SRtoxics

[HEJSupport International @HEJ_Support]

Chemical pollution in Bangladesh is no longer an isolated industrial problem. It has evolved into a national public health emergency, closely linked to ecological degradation, #climateinjustice, and growing socioeconomic vulnerability @esdobd https://t.co/bdippNZZTj

[HEJSupport International @HEJ_Support]

A new @OECD report warns that recycled #plastics can contain thousands of chemicals, including hazardous additives, contaminants & legacy substances #Circulareconomy #PlasaticsTreaty @CEJADKenya @CeciliaSBianco https://t.co/GduPOoZ00I

[Olga Speranskaya @OlgaSperansk]

Children are especially vulnerable to #EDCs and other toxic substances linked to plastic. Convenience should never come at the expense of children’s health @Greenpeace @ToxicsFree @CEJADKenya @EDCFree

[Olga Speranskaya @OlgaSperansk]

This is not an isolated exposure. It is a systemic contamination linked to consumer products, food packaging, textiles, #firefightingfoams, polluted water. Strong action on #PFAS across the full lifecycle is urgently needed @brsmeas
