PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Our goal is to ensure that companies replace harmful chemicals and processes with actions that protect human health and sustain ecological systems.
— Cailin Dendas
Every day, people interact with an unseen world of chemicals, pesticides, antibiotics, and industrial compounds that move through the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the products we use. These hidden exposures threaten public health, degrade ecosystems, and create serious financial and reputational risks for companies that fail to act responsibly.
As You Sow’s Environmental Health Program works to end these dangers at their source. We engage major food, agriculture, and Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) companies, using shareholder advocacy, science-based dialogue, and legal action to replace harmful substances and practices with solutions that sustain life.
Our current priorities address the systems shaping health at a planetary scale.
