Dioxin! The Facts

Dioxin! 
What Citizens, Workers and Policymakers Should Know.





Linda Birnbaum, who is currently the director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences discusses what dioxin is, how toxic it is, and whether it causes cancer.

Although the interview was conducted in 2004 when Dr. Birnbaum  was head of the EPA  Division of Toxicology, we believe it continues to provide a useful and easy to understand summary of some of the available evidence against dioxin.

The video was originally commissioned in 2004 by the Ecology Center of Ann Arbor and the Public Interest Research Group In Michigan, but has never been released publicly until today. Thanks to the Ecology Center and Dr. Birnbaum for agreeing to make this public.
