ACSH staffers were pleasantly surprised when they discovered anti-pseudoscience blogger JunkScienceMom s reference to a Hands off my plastic stuff! Facebook site, which reveals some of the various consumer and medical products that would disappear if BPA were banned. This find is very timely, given the recent Health Canada statement that, despite their BPA ban in plastic baby bottles, BPA is in fact safe. ACSH s Jeff Stier noted, This contradiction makes it quite clear that the bans against BPA are not based on science, but on political and activist pressure.
