Minister of Health Zofija Mazej Kukovič today opened the exhibition "Chemical Lovers" in the Justus Lipsius Building in Brussels. The exhibition is intended to raise public awareness of the presence of different chemicals in our life, and to point out the fact that only we ourselves may make the best use of chemicals and reduce their possible adverse effects on the environment by our appropriate choice, use and disposal of chemicals. "Chemical safety is in our hands" was the Minister's message conveyed at the opening ceremony.
The exhibition features photographs of people in connection with the use of chemicals in their daily life.
