Bisphenol A: Fast Company

Wow, today's really the day for covering the press coverage: Fast Company published an excellent article on - guess what - "The Real Story behind Bisphenol A".

The article nicely unscrambles the influence of the chemical industry and their lobbyists on the regulation of chemicals, and once more demonstrates that BPA is a text book example, not only in toxicology but also in political sciences!

By pure coincidence, I received the letter of the Weinberg Group, Fast Company is refering to. You may download it here: Weinberg-Group (pdf, 352 KB)

What really scares me is the modality in which industry tries to discredit scientists. May that also happen to me and my work on plastic bottles? We'll see! Meanwhile: read Fast Company!
