About the Ecology Center
HealthyCar.org is a project of the Ecology Center, a non-profit environmental organization that works for a safe and healthy environment where people live, work and play. Founded by community activists after the country's first Earth Day in 1970, the Ecology Center is now a regional leader in the struggle for clean air, safe water, healthy communities, and environmental justice.
The Center's Clean Car Campaign works to address environmental and health impacts of the production, use and disposal of vehicles in the U.S. The Clean Car Campaign is one of the nation's leading groups in addressing chemicals in vehicles, having issued a series of reports on chemicals in vehicles over the last 7 years: including reports on mercury, lead, brominated flame retardants and plasticizers and an annual assessment of sustainability of auto plastics.
The Ecology Center and its Clean Car Campaign are funded by contributions from members, donors, and events, as well as by grants and contracts from public and private funders. HealthyCar.org is partially funded by the John Merck Fund and the New York Community Trust.*
