The Hazards Lurking at Home

I was reading an article in Time magazine called "The Perils of Plastic. There was also an interesting illustration not directly related to the article called the hazards lurking at home. I found it interesting how this can also relate to building materials and how people assume products are safe, but in reality, there just isn't enough testing to determine whether these materials are safe or not. In some cases there are known unsafe chemicals used, but the claim is that they use a "safe amount" of these toxic chemicals.
