Quotes
Himself - Biologist: You look at a house like this and the vinyl seems perfectly harmless. It's just sitting there in front of the house; nobody's falling down with any diseases. But that's if you are only looking at the product itself. If you look at its entire life cycle, from the moment it's produced, through its use, to the way it's disposed of, vinyl turns out to be the most environmentally hazardous consumer product on earth. Vinyl is the source of more persistent toxic pollutants, dioxin in particular, than any other single product in the world.

not impressed

I understand this movie was trying to get the message out about the dangers of vinyl but they need to be more prepared and get all of their facts straight. They kept referring to studies done 30 years ago but not much recently. Also, when Judith interviewed the representative from the Vinyl Institute she was completely out of her league and unprepared. The representative was very convincing and was not the least bit shaken by any of her questions. The representative handled her "tough" questions very easily. I was not impressed with this movie.
