Description of Our Community: Changhua County is located in the middle of Taiwan, and she is a plain county. People here earn money by agriculture and fishery industry. There are lots of famous monument to play and delicious food to eat, but many street vendors use plastic bags to take commodities. We all forget the influence of Plasticizer. Toward our research, we expect that we can have much more understanding about Plasticizer and we can summon more people to value the issue.

Project Description: The 2011 Taiwan food scandal was a food safety scandal in Taiwan over the use one of plasticizer - DEHP to replace palm oil in food and drinks as a clouding agent. The chemical agent has been linked to developmental problems with children as it affects hormones. The food affected includes beverages, fruit juices, bread, sports drinks, tea, and jam. As the growth of human beings, we pay more attention to protect the environment we lived. We hope to awake more people to know the issue about plasticizer. Our research tries to find out the truth, discuss plasticizer, and do ours best to protect our environment.
