In Public Spaces
- Encourage your town to use natural, nontoxic solvents for cleaning public buildings. Using safer cleaners on a town-wide basis helps reduce exposure to compounds that mimic estrogen or otherwise disrupt hormones.
- Ensure that organic practices are followed in the care of green spaces. Eliminating pesticides on a town-wide basis helps reduce exposure to compounds that mimic estrogen or otherwise disrupt hormones.
- Avoid areas that have been recently sprayed with pesticides. Watch for signs, and ask about spraying practices in parks, on golf courses, and in other recreation spaces.
