00:00One month before Christmas, toys for gifts are already available.

00:04That's why a group is trying to encourage people to buy toys

00:08that contain dangerous chemicals.

00:13BN Manalo has more.

00:18Along with the celebration of National Children's Month this November

00:22and the upcoming Christmas,

00:24children's products like toys have been sold again.

00:29That's why Mary Jane is very careful in buying toys for her children.

00:35She's making sure that her toys are safe from the dangerous chemicals in the toys.

00:42I read what's written on the toys to see if the child is safe or not.

00:47Of course, it's not allowed.

00:49Like others, there are dangerous chemicals.

00:52If you try it, of course, the children will get sick.

00:55That's why BAN Toxic Philippines is making an effort

01:00to ensure the safety of children from the dangerous chemicals.

01:05In fact, the group conducted a new study

01:08with the Environment and Social Development Organization or ESDO

01:12in Bangladesh and the Philippines.

01:15Its goal is to reduce the public's awareness

01:18of the dangers of various dangerous chemicals in toys

01:22and to encourage the government to take action

01:26especially on the strict implementation of the policies related to this.

01:30That's why our group, BAN Toxics and ESDO,

01:34is pushing to remove these chemicals

01:38because they are not needed in these products,

01:41especially in children's products.

01:44The group is also encouraging to put labels on the products

01:48in accordance with Republic Act 10620

01:51or the Toy and Game Safety Labeling Act of 2013.

01:55They are afraid of the harmful effects of chemicals on health.

01:59For example, when we talk about lead and mercury,

02:03it's a neurotoxin.

02:05So, it attacks the brain first.

02:07Polyvinyl chloride,

02:09the kind of plastic squeaky toys,

02:12the effect of other chemicals will be the result of this.

02:17This is an endocrine-disrupting chemical.

02:20It may cause hormonal imbalance.

02:23Among the information that should be included in the label

02:27is the name, location, contact number of the manufacturers,

02:31ingredients, cautionary information,

02:34and there should be a license to operate number from the regulatory agency.

02:39That's why they are advising the buyers.

02:42Our countrymen should not look at the price.

02:46They should look at whether the age of the product is appropriate for them.
