The burden seems to be flipped here. You can't release a medical product until you have reproducible and verifiable results proving your product is safe and effective. When it comes to the environment you can release something until it's proven that it's not safe and effective. They're increasing the burden under the nomenclature of science, when in reality it's a cost/benefit between a company's profits and the quality of life of everyone. I don't mean to sound anti-corprate, but environmental regulations only exist because companies externalize costs onto society and this increases the burden for balancing exposing that cost.
