California will broaden its warning labels for bisphenol A, a chemical widely used in plastic cups and other food and drink containers, after the state Supreme Court rejected an appeal by the chemical industry Wednesday.
Since 2015, the state has required labels on products containing bisphenol A stating that it can cause reproductive harm in women. The court order upholds state health officials’ decision to require additional warnings of “developmental toxicity,” or harm to fetuses and newborn and young children whose mothers are exposed to the chemical during pregnancy.
