Cancer and Chemicals - A Lot of Talk About It

There should be a lot of conversation about this very topic. The flow of information on the effect of chemicals and human health is nothing new, but in the past the lay person has been relatively uninformed about the subject. Fortunately, the mounting data in the information age is making it evermore challenging for manufacturers to ignore this connection. While consumers may not be able to discern the exact impact on human physiology that these chemicals impart, they are becoming aware that they should at least ask the question of whether or not their products pose a health hazard.

The Breast Cancer Fund's President, Jeanne Rizzo is conducting a series of talks in Alaska to inform citizen's about these health hazards and how they can take steps to minimize their individual and family exposure. She was asked by the organization Alaska Community Action on Toxics to provide this educational opportunity. Listen here to Jeanne Rizzo's interview on Alaska's public radio. It's important to us to help you be as informed as possible. The present and future of our health and ecosystem hinges on our society's capacity to resolve these issues. The more we are all a part of that resolution process...the faster things will move along toward cleaning up our environment.
