            <title>Feb 12, New Safety Law Doesn't Mean All's Well In Toyland</title>
            <link>https://www.baby-safety-resources.com/baby-safety-blog.html#New-Safety-Law-Doesnt-Mean-Alls-Well-In-Toyland</link><guid isPermaLink="false">603e822b3b2125b90173760bfc54ea35</guid><description>NPR broadcasted this informative report today.  I wanted to share it with you.

Morning Edition, February 12, 2009 · A new federal law took effect this week banning chemicals called phthalates in children's toys and other kids' products. While the ban was hailed as a victory for children's health, it's no guarantee that the products are safe. 

That's because companies currently aren't required to publicly disclose the chemicals they use in place of phthalates — and little is known about the health effects of one of the most widely used alternatives. 

Phthalates have long been used as a way to make plastic soft and flexible. But the chemicals can leach out of plastic products and enter our bodies, where some scientists suspect they act like hormones. Phthalates have been shown to affect the development of the male reproductive system in lab animals, and a few small studies suggest they may be linked to subtle effects in the reproductive organs of infant boys.

In preparation for the federal ban, manufacturers have been reformulating baby rattles and plastic toys with phthalate substitutes. But the ban doesn't spell out what chemicals they can use to replace phthalates.

A provision of the U.S. law that would have required companies to pick safer alternatives was removed, according to sources close to the negotiations, after fierce lobbying by Exxon Mobil, one of the largest producers of plasticizers in the world. Exxon Mobil spokesman Chris Welberry says the phthalate the company makes is safe, so there's no need for the new law or the provision. And he says the U.S. is replacing known chemicals with chemicals about which little is known.

California enacted a similar ban on phthalates on Jan. 1. That law does require manufacturers to use substitutes that aren't known to cause cancer or reproductive harm — but it doesn't bar substitutes that might have other adverse health effects.

&quot;There are 80,000 chemicals in commerce,&quot; says California Environmental Protection Agency toxicologist Stephen Dizio. &quot;We know something about toxicity of about 400 of them. That really means that things come and go in the marketplace that you have no idea what will happen.&quot;
