  1. There is a good deal of controversy in dioxin risk assessment, mostly because of the lack of understanding in the discrete biological pathways and the potential for effects that are not yet fully understood.  The concern over dioxin has caused some to call for banning the use and manufacture of chlorine and chlorinated compounds.  Do you think this is a good approach to dioxin risk management?
