The Problem(s) with the Environmental Working Group (EWG)

They act like consumer advocates, but they aren't.

The Environmental Working Group (EWG) is a non-profit that cosplays as a consumer watchdog. They claim their main objective is to protect consumers from potentially harmful ingredients in cosmetics and food products.
Which is UNTRUE.

Today, I’d like to discuss EWG's activities, the concerns over its scientific methodology, and its significant financial ties to the organic industry, which create conflicts of interest and bias.
