The campaign aims to warn the public that many everyday goods contain toxic chemicals that accumulate in human blood. These man-made chemicals may be carcinogenic, allergenic, or hormone disrupting.

Currently a new EU regulatory framework for chemicals is being drafted and European health and Environment NGOs are campaining at all levels to have a stronger framework that would protect human health.

To publicise this important issue Pasaules Dabas Fonds has taken a number of measures including the publication of dozens of articles, distribution of informational materials, and hosted a public action “Vampires against chemical contamination” twice in Riga.

Pasaules Dabas Fonds’s next event takes place in May.
