Environmental Working Group

Description:The Environmental Working Group (EWG) is a not-for-profit environmental research organization dedicated to improving public health and protecting the environment by reducing pollution in air, water and food. The goal of EWG's research is to turn raw data into usable information. EWG researchers unearth large databases from state and federal government agencies and other sources. Then, using their considerable computer hardware, software, and database management expertise, EWG analysts sift through the databases to discover the relevant information and newsworthy stories that are buried within the mountains of data. EWG supplements its database research and analysis with carefully targeted monitoring of chemical contaminants in food, air and water.
