A report commissioned by the Center for Environment and Health and co-released by the Alliance for a Healthy Tomorrow finds chemical flame retardants in children’s nap mats. Our sister organization, Silent Spring Institute, has also conducted research on flame retardants. They found these chemicals in the house dust of most homes sampled, often at levels above federal guidelines. Flame retardant chemicals have been linked to cancer, endocrine disruption, problems with reproductive development and more.
