Safe Food, Healthy Kids

Our food should be safe and nutritious, especially the food that is served to children in schools.

Unfortunately, most fast food chains have safety standards 10 times stronger for beef than the USDA has set for school lunches.

Safer Alternatives to Toxic Chemicals

Every year tons of harmful, dangerous waste is released into our air and water. CoPIRG is working to create and implement safer, healthier alternatives to this industrial pollution. Read more.

Overview

All Coloradans deserve to live in a healthy and toxic-free environment. Unfortunately, conditions like cancer, birth defects, and childhood asthma are all linked to chemicals commonly found in popular consumer products, released into our air and water, or dumped into toxic waste sites right in our neighborhoods. CoPIRG stands up to polluters to ensure that the public has full knowledge about hazardous material in our communities.

Coloradans deserve safe and clean communities. That's why CoPIRG is working to reduce the toxic content of industrial waste, fund the cleanup of toxic dumps, and make powerful interests tell the truth about what they're putting into our air and water.
