A Plastics Primer

I just came across this link from the Connecticut Department of Health on one of my listservs – its a great little fact sheet on the different types of plastics that are used for everything from toys to baby bottles.  It also explains which ones leach various chemicals into your food or water (um, yuck) and how to best use each type if you can’t avoid them.  It’s concise and easy to read – thanks Connecticut!
