UNACCEPTABLE LEVELS-ED BROWN’S FILM ON THE TOXIC LOAD WE CARRY

ENVISION THIS: A future without the threat of toxic chemicals in our daily lives

“Unacceptable Levels” examines the unseen threat of toxic chemicals in our daily lives through the eyes of filmmaker Ed Brown, a father seeking to understand the world in which he and his wife are raising their children. Anchored in Brown’s own poignant experiences, the film follows his quest to uncover the impact of toxins on his family’s health.

To create this debut documentary, Brown traveled extensively to interview top minds in the fields of science, industry, government, law and environmental advocacy. Compiling their testimonies into a provocative narrative, he chronicles the history of industrial chemicals—from the chemical revolution of the 1940s through the shocking prevalence of unregulated chemicals in our everyday lives. The film seeks to impart greater understanding about the compounding effects of chemicals on our health; engage questioning around the potential human and environmental risks; and ultimately inspire people to take action.
