This week Tee is honored to welcome Amy Ziff. Amy is the founder and executive director of Nontoxic Certified & the MADE SAFE® Certification. Amy pioneered the rigorous MADE SAFE® seal; the revolutionary Ecosystem Screening Process, MADE SAFE® Banned List, and the Red List Powered by MADE SAFE. MADE SAFE® is America’s first independent, 3rd party cross-category certification program for nontoxic consumer products.
In this episode, Tee and Amy explore the pervasiveness and hazards of the over 80,000 chemicals in everyday products. Amy shares her personal journey of overcoming health issues stemming from chemical exposures and delves into her work with MADE SAFE®. The discussion covers the systemic changes needed in product manufacturing, the complexities of fragrance ingredients, and the crucial role of consumer awareness and legislative action. Amy also hints at new initiatives aimed at encouraging companies to eliminate the most harmful chemicals from their products.
