Numerous campaigns have successfully raised awareness and reduced toxic exposures. For instance:
- The "Mr. Yuk" campaign: An initiative by the Pittsburgh Poison Center that uses a green, frowning face sticker to warn children about poisonous substances. - The "Don't Fry Day" campaign: Led by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to educate the public on preventing sunburn and reducing skin cancer risk from UV radiation. - OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard: Ensuring that workers are informed about the hazards of chemicals they are exposed to in the workplace.
