		ACC member companies that primarily manufacture plastics or chemicals use natural gas for heating and electricy and were upset with ACC weak lobbying position on natural gas prices.
		In October 2004, ACC gave the Environmental Protection Agency $2 million to help fund a study exploring the impact of pesticides and household chemicals on young children.
		In the fall of 2005, the ACC launched "an integrated public education campaign to raise the chemical industry's image and reputation," called "essential2." ACC hired Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide, APCO Worldwide and Ogilvy and Mather for the campaign, which is expected to cost $35 million over two years.
