Q: Can you tell us about your background and how you got interested in this fight?
I've spent the last 20 years working on toxic chemical pollution in our air, water, and products, including packaging. My goal has been to push companies toward better decisions and to use policy to shift markets away from toxic chemicals, including outright bans where appropriate.

Q: What is KWiiD and how does it work? Can you show us the sample or concept?
