Greenpeace continues to attempt to scare the public into changing its eating patterns by hyping a draft EPA report that linked potential dioxin danger to the foods we eat. Carol Browner, EPA administrator, urged caution in interpreting the report, noting that “this is not a final document” and that its conclusions have not been reviewed by an EPA scientific advisory board. Dr. John Doull from the University of Kansas, a former advisor to the EPA on dioxin, says the draft “appears to be ill-timed, political rather than scientific, and is an embarrassment to science and certainly to toxicology.”
