Overview Today, nearly every product that makes life healthier, safer and more enjoyable benefits in some way from the use of chemicals. Whether it's making the water safe to drink, helping develop new life-saving medications, increasing and protecting the world's food supply, or eradicating the spread of disease, the responsible use of chemicals provides countless benefits to billions of people every day. But with these many benefits comes a tremendous responsibility – the responsibility to make sure that chemicals are managed in a way that protects human health and the environment, while meeting changing societal needs.
