Is the plastic component BPA as dangerous as the pesticide DDT? DDT is banned in the U.S. BPA is not currently. If you had a child would you let them consume food and drink from plastic containers? Would you fight for government policy to outlaw BPA as we have for DDT? Why or why not? Use evidence from the sources provided or new sources you found when researching this topic.
