Kissing for Lead Free Lipstick!

If you feel guilty about your lack of Earth Day involvement, here's the inspiration you just might have been missing.

A group of concerned and proactive teens in Marin County, California founded the organization Teens Turning Green in 2002 after learning the alarming statistic that breast cancer had risen 60% in 8 years. Now, the coalition is made up of teenagers from around the country and its mission is:

investigating toxic exposures in daily lives, schools and communities, advocating for change in policy and practices that protect the world, and educating peers and the community about healthy lifestyle choices. Through positive and collaborative efforts, these leaders of the next generation inspire us to work towards a healthy, sustainable future.

Teens for Safe Cosmetics is the beauty-policing branch. Its current initiative is to get the use of lead - a neurotoxin - in lipstick banned. One creative member started the Lips Against Lead petition, where quite appropriately, you sign and kiss the petition to show your support. That's me, smoochin' my signature.
