Environmental Health Information on Children
Children are exposed to more bad stuff than adults are partly because they're closer to the ground and because they put all kinds of yukky stuff in their mouths. It turns out that "pound for pound of body weight, children breathe more air, drink more water and eat more food than adults," according to <cite>The EPA Children's Environmental Health Yearbook Executive Summary."</cite> And therein lies the threat.
