Choosing Safer, Sustainable Food. We help consumers buy healthier foods, lower in toxic pollutants like dioxins, mercury and flame retardants.

The Eat Well Guide. An online, searchable guide for finding sustainably-raised meat, fish and dairy products at farms, stores and restaurants near you.

Creating Healthier Food. We encourage policymakers and farmers to focus on healthier, more sustainable methods of producing food while reducing toxins.

Factory Farms and Health. Modern food production is increasingly industrial and factory-like, meaning more intensive use of energy, like petroleum-based fertilizers and pesticides, and indoor confinement of food animals which concentrates manure and manure-related pollutants that impact the health of farmers, workers and neighbors.

Antibiotic Overuse in Food Animals. 70 percent of all U.S. antibiotics are given to livestock and poultry that are not even sick. This wasteful use of antibiotics harms human health and worsens a global crisis in antibiotic resistance.

Toxic Sludge, Fertilizers. Commercial fertilizers and sludge applied to farmland and home gardens can legally contain toxic contaminants like arsenic, lead, etc.

Environmental Roots of Disease. Toxic pollutants are preventable causes of many diseases, including Parkinson’s Disease, cancer and learning and behavioral disorders. We inform health-impacted groups about these links. Farmers are among those most exposed to toxic agents found in food production and the rural environment.

Farms to Hospitals. Hospitals and physicians are seeking to provide healthier, more sustainable food for patients and staff. Together with Health Care Without Harm we work to help hospitals buy meat and fish raised without routine antibiotics.
