From WXYZ.com (Channel 7, ABC, Detroit):
On Wednesday, December 5 the Michigan-based Ecology Center - the same group that released the first-ever consumer guides to toxic chemicals in cars and child car seats - will be releasing new research on over 1,200 toys in collaboration with the Washington Toxics Coalition and other leading environmental health groups across the country. At www.healthytoys.org parents will be able to easily check how products rank from highest to lowest in terms of lead, cadmium and other chemicals that are associated with reproductive problems, developmental and learning disabilities, hormone problems and cancer.
Toys made with PVC, or polyvinyl chloride, were also tested because they often contain phthalates and other hazardous chemical additives.
