Report Card Grades » Earth Island Institute » Grade: A+

Earth Island Institute was the first organization to endorse PETA’s statement:

• Calling on EPA to increase its funding and use of non-animal test methods; and
• Endorsing the use of only those new test methods that have been rigorously assessed by the Interagency Coordinating Committee for the Validation of Alternative Methods and found to be scientifically valid.

The Earth Island Institute has always been very supportive of the animal protection stance on animal-testing issues and has signed on to coalition efforts to pressure the EPA to reduce its reliance on animals in its chemical-testing programs.
