One of EWG's most notable initiatives is the Skin Deep database, which evaluates the safety of ingredients in personal care products. This database allows consumers to check the potential health risks associated with cosmetics and skincare items. Another significant effort is the EWG's Guide to Pesticides in Produce, also known as the "Dirty Dozen" and "Clean Fifteen" lists, which highlight the levels of pesticide residues in conventionally grown fruits and vegetables. These initiatives provide actionable insights for reducing exposure to toxic substances.
