Cov cai no tsom mus rau cov pa phem uas cov chaw ua hlau tso tawm. Cov pa roj los ntawm cov qhov cub ua rau muaj kev pheej hmoo mob qog noj ntshav hauv huab cua ib puag ncig cov chaw ua hlau ntawm 50 ntawm 1,000,000, uas cov neeg tawm tswv yim kev noj qab haus huv pej xeem hais tias nws muaj kev phom sij rau cov menyuam yaus thiab cov neeg uas muaj teeb meem kev noj qab haus huv.

"Cov neeg tau ntsib teeb meem kev noj qab haus huv ntev lawm, xws li mob qog noj ntshav, vim muaj kuab paug los ntawm lub qhov cub coke," Patrice Simms, tus lwm thawj coj ntawm Earthjustice rau cov zej zog noj qab haus huv tau hais. Cov cai no "tseem ceeb rau kev tiv thaiv cov zej zog thiab cov neeg ua haujlwm nyob ze ntawm lub qhov cub coke".
Cov qhov cub Coke yog cov chav uas ua kom cov thee kub los tsim cov coke, uas yog cov khoom siv tawv siv los ua hlau. Cov pa roj uas cov qhov cub tsim tawm tau raug EPA cais ua cov tshuaj carcinogen uas paub tias yog tib neeg thiab muaj cov tshuaj lom neeg txaus ntshai, cov hlau hnyav thiab cov khoom sib xyaw ua ke.

Cov cai, uas tau tshaj tawm rau hnub Friday, yuav tsum tau kuaj "fenceline" nyob ib puag ncig cov nroj tsuag, thiab, yog tias pom muaj cov pa phem tshaj qhov txwv tshiab, cov neeg ua hlau yuav tsum txheeb xyuas qhov chaw thiab ua cov kauj ruam los txo cov theem.
Cov cai kuj tseem tshem tawm cov qhov tsis zoo uas kev lag luam yav dhau los siv los zam kev tshaj tawm cov pa phem, xws li zam cov kev txwv ntawm cov pa phem thaum muaj teeb meem.

"Kuv pom tias nws nyuaj rau ntseeg tias [cov kev txwv] yuav nyuaj rau ua tiav," Lee hais.
