Just found a great green website to alert the consumer. This one has a terrific kid friendly video. You can watch it by visiting here.

They have a great Take Action Page. Though I knew certain plastics were bad, I had idea how much PVC was still around in shower curtains, toys & packaging. PVC is "dangerous throughout its entire life cycle of production, use and disposal. Consumers can identify it by looking for the number “3”, “PVC” or the letter “V” inside or underneath the universal recycling symbol. In addition, soft flexible PVC products often have a distinct odor, such as vinyl shower curtains. When produced or burned, PVC plastic releases dioxins"
