Women’s Voices for the Earth amplifies women’s voices
to eliminate the toxic chemicals that harm our health and communities.
We envision a world where the earth is taken care of, workers are paid well and treated fairly,
and there are no toxic chemicals in our homes, our communities or our environment.

They are skin irritants, have been linked to asthma, fertility issues, and reproductive harm. We don’t need quats, or disinfectants in general, to clean our homes and keep our families healthy. In fact, using antibacterial cleaners has never been proven to be more effective at reducing illness in the home than plain old soap and water. Meanwhile the harm chemicals like quats are doing to our health and the environment is real. LEARN MORE!
