40,000 unresearched chemicals
« on: June 19, 2019, 07:23:07 PM »
Weedkiller in your breakfast cereal. Contaminated drinking water. Carcinogenic chemicals in your furniture.

Americans are routinely exposed to dangerous chemicals that have long been banned in countries such as the UK, Germany and France. Of the 40,000 chemicals used in consumer products in the US, according to the EPA, only one percent have been tested for human safety.

With support from our readers, The Guardian aims to raise $150,000 for a six-month project on how these levels of toxicity are impacting our lives. We will explore the worrying health implications of living in an environment that can expose us to chemical contamination on a daily basis.

Your support will enable us to examine the power of the $640bn chemical industry – which has a lobby that’s currently better funded than the NRA – and raise public awareness about its influence. This series will help us all to make sense of the complex science and conflicting messages about what’s safe, what’s harmful and what remains unknown.

Ultimately, the maga hat one percenters who own those chemical companies will tell you that everything is just fine.  Yer imagining  things.  And, the climate doesn’t change, either.  Ya commie.

It was fun to troll The Guardian before they stopped allowing comments because they're pansy-assed leftist scum.

Yeah, before the industrial revolution, we had none of those chemicals.


And we got to die at what? 50?


But yeah, I agree with Lotus. They are poisoning us. But that's the only way the found to save the earth, I think.

Yeah.  I don't think we were dying at 50 because of a lack of pesticides.  I don't think it was a lack of Pumpkin Head that was killing us, either.

You do know that the life expectancy is currently GOING DOWN in the USA, while countries with more limits on pesticides have rising life expectancies?  We are falling behind!

Life expectancy is going down because of an increase in suicide and drug deaths.

Actually, there is about the same rate of cancer, but people are living longer with it.

China uses the most pesticides of any country in the world and yet life expectancy has soared in recent decades.
