Pesticides began working on triclosan and triclocarban in 2004. In 2008,
we launched the Ban Triclosan Campaign with
Food & Water Watch. The campaign is focused on creating the scientific
framework for legally challenging FDA and EPA (read more about the two
petitions), promoting the adoption of local
ordinances for local governments and institutions (schools) to stop
using triclosan, and advocating for corporate responsibility to stop the
use of this poison.
