The provincial government

The provincial government is now experimenting whether there is any chemicals found in baby bottles, children drinking cups, soft plastic toys, reusable water bottles and even the lining of some food cans. Members of environmental who studied chemicals polluting in Canadian children is now taking the action. The groups has found 39 chemicals that contaminated their body, including, bisphenol A- a substance that causes breast cancer, obesity, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and developmental problems. Environmental defence went out to the park and draw attention to the issue of chemicals in children bottle toward the provincial government. 150 parents and children went out with a sign that says “Babies Unite Against Toxic Chemicals" and "Don't Pollute Me.

As you can see chemicals were found in babies bottles, children drinking cupos, water bottles. Even though, babies are just youngsters who are just born to live and they have the right to be treated as other people. If the government or manufactor of baby bottle thinks that baby are not important but they are going to lead our world in the next century. Because the birth rate around the world is decreasing dramatically. We need to take care and consider babies health and safety more.
