This is just one of the interesting facts shared in a recent post at TheGreenWayBlog.com.

The post, written by April Scott, is filled with interesting information not often shared in discussions about BPA.

Here is a taste of what you can learn:

"Approximately 7-8 billion pounds of BPA are produced annually. BPA can be found in almost all Americans. FDA released estimates saying they suspect 100 percent of Americans are exposed due to vast use of BPA plastics in everything from coating for children's teeth to prevent cavities, metal food can liners, plastic food containers, baby bottles, water bottles, juice, milk and water containers, microwave 'safe' ovenware and eating utensils and much, much more. Revenue from BPA based products is estimated to be over $700,000 per hour*. It's your money and your life."

Kudos to April for taking the trouble to dig deep and share a lot of useful information.
