TO: All People Who Care
I *am *a *private *individual *posting *this message to help
Laboratory Animals. I apologize if this message is out of
place in this group but I think you need to know this.
A * new * European * Chemical * Testing * *Policy * *called
REACH *has *now * been * finalised * by * *the * European
Union. *Under *these *proposals * Chemicals * *of * *every
kind * - from *those *used *in *industrial *processes to *the
ingredients *of *consumer products *- will * be * tested *on
Millions of *animals from *mice *to *fish *to *dogs, causing
untold suffering.
If *you *believe *that *REACH *should make *more *use *of
Alternative Testing to test *its Chemicals then please take
action now.
If *you are *a *European citizen *please *contact your local
papers *and * own * MEP *asking * them * to *promote * the
development *of *humane * non-animal *testing * *methods
under the REACH legislation, which is the best *hope *we
have for sparing animals the misery of a testing laboratory.
A sample *letter can *be found at the BUAV (British Union
for the Abolition of Vivisection) website atwww.BUAV.org
(Select Campaigns, *Chemical Testing, * Get Active *then
Writing to the local press).
For * all * Non-European * members, *you * can *still * help.
Please tell all *your *colleagues and friends in the UK and
Europe about *REACH.
Everyone can help and you can make *a *difference.
Thank You
I think the chemicals should be tested on cross posters.
