| Comment | I am a California supporter of the Environmental Working Group
(EWG) who wants cleaner air. I ask the California Air Resources
Board to adopt the 2010 Consumer Products Regulation Amendments.
These amendments need to reduce smog-forming volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) found in cleaning supplies and many other consumer
goods.
Also create product-specific bans of key ingredients with
significant health or environmental concerns, including alkylphenol
ethoxylates, perchloroethylene and chemicals with high potential to
worsen global warming.
I encourage you to strongly regulate and reduce the harmful
chemicals in consumer products. In doing so, we can set an
important precedent in protecting the health of families and
workers -- not only in our state but nationwide as well.
I appreciate the protections you have already put into place --
thank you for taking air pollution and our health seriously!
