Behind the Scenes: The Lefty PR Group That Stokes Consumer Fear of BPA
The science against BPA isn’t very convincing, yet the left-wing onslaught from environmental groups, activist scientists and the media has convinced many consumers that soup cans, soda bottles and plastic storage containers are going to make them sick.
