"With PFAS in our drinking water and toxics found in black plastic spatulas, it is shocking how little retailers are doing to help solve this health crisis linked to hazardous chemicals and plastics in consumer products."
"The 2024 report analyzed 50 major U.S. and Canadian retailers, grading them based on corporate commitment to adopting safer chemical policies, ingredient transparency, bans on dangerous chemicals and harmful plastics."
"The report also found that 80% of retailers did not create policies to establish safer alternatives to toxic chemicals and plastics, and that 54% do not ask suppliers for ingredient transparency."
"Trader Joe's, McDonald's, Chipotle, 7-Eleven and Subway were among the 17 retailers that earned failing F grades on the nonprofit's 2024 Retailer Report Card, putting them in what they refer to as the 'Toxic Hall of Shame.'"
