Keep Your Child Safe! Find Out Which Cars and Car Seats Contain Toxic Chemicals.

HealthyCar.org has just released the 2nd annual consumer guide to toxic chemicals in cars (and child, baby, and infant car seats), complete with the newest test results for over 200 of the most popular 2008 and 2009 model vehicles and over 60 child car seats.

As an added bonus, this year’s rankings are cross-referenced with fuel economy figures, allowing consumers to find both healthy and fuel-efficient vehicles.

This is great information for parents! We spend so much accumulated time in vehicles with our children, and many cars release toxins that are linked to birth defects, cancer, and learning disabilities. The videos below wonderfully show what toxins hide where, how they affect our health, and what you can do to find the healthiest car in the future.
