Canada Bans BPA in Baby Bottles-

Oh, Canada! How you act so quickly. While it takes our congress years to reform the CPSC, you move in one week to ban BPA from all baby bottles. You have the honor of being the first country to ban BPA (I thought the EU would win on this one). And look what you have started--

I learned from this article in the Washington Post that:

*Walmart will stop selling products with BPA by next year.
*Playtex will offer BPA free alternatives and stop selling BPA products by the end of the year.
*And in a reversal of policy from even a week ago (see my post about the confusing marketing of Nalgene's new BPA free line), Nalgene said it will stop production of water bottles containing BPA and recall water bottles currently in stores.
*And according to the Post article, "Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) said he will file a bill to ban BPA from all baby products as well as dental sealants and any bottle or container that holds food and drink." Bravo!

It just keeps getting better. More action on this, please, keep it coming. Especially here in the U.S. It's high time we started protecting consumers (especially little ones) from an unnecessary chemical load.
