PVCs adversely affect human health (developmental disorders being only one example) - yet they are commonly found in many school supplies. What kind of supplies? Most commonly binders but that's not all. PVC is basically vinyl. Many polyvinyl chloride products contain phthalates - which have been limited in certain children's wares (like baby bottles) but not in school supplies.
Lessening the total toxic load in which we are all immersed (and if you are living, breathing, eating or drinking on this planet - you are immersed in the toxic sludge that is choking the life out of our life-giving Earth) is always a prudent step towards being well.
