Listen live to California BPA hearing

California will today consider adding bisphenol A to its Proposition 65 list of chemicals known to be reproductive and developmental toxicants.

An audiocast of the California Environmental Protection Agency hearing, which begins at 10 a.m. PST, will be available here.

Adding BPA to the list would mean warning labels on products that contain the chemical, and could also be critical in California's fight to ban BPA. As comments submitted jointly by 32 environmental health organizations stated:

"The science is in and the evidence is clear. Public health, particularly the health of fetuses, infants and children is compromised by exposure to BPA."

Let's hope the EPA committee thinks so too. Check back after the hearing for an update.
