Over the past year, we’ve been reporting on a chemical called BADGE – or BPA’s evil cousin. Most people have heard of BPA, but researchers say BADGE, is leaving scores of workers, artisans and individuals at risk.
Today senior editor Brian Bienkowski speaks with freelance reporter, Meg Wilcox, who has been investigating BADGE for EHN. She talks about why BADGE is concerning, who is most at risk, and why it’s falling through the regulatory cracks.
