Abstract
Chemical substances are the underpinnings of science, technology and life. Some of the most important of science and technological development were associated with material's character. Materials of all kinds are becoming more sophisticated. Endocrine disrupting chemicals was included these many materials in our life.
We do not know about a right characteristic of these endocrine disrupting chemicals. But we expect that will generate social impact. The analysis of social impact must be human dimension research. Particularly, I think that the company have to implement the following :
(1) Environmental information (material safety data sheet, several monitoring)
(2) Education about products :
(3) Product liability
(4) Risk potential
(5) Marketing
(6) Environmental performance
