Fossil Fuels Are Killing Us; Carcinogenic Weed Killer; TTIP will Kill UK Healthcare
The Lancet: Fossil Fuels Are Killing Us… Quitting Them Can Save Us. “Health puts a human face on what can sometimes seem to be a distant threat. By making the case for climate change as a health issue, we hope that the civilizational crisis we face will achieve greater public resonance.”
Leading Cancer Experts: 2,4-D Weed-Killer Is ‘Possibly Carcinogenic to Humans’. “We have known for decades that 2,4-D is harmful to the environment and human health, especially for the farmers and farm workers applying these chemicals to crops. Now that farmers are planting 2,4-D-tolerant GMO crops, this herbicide is slated to explode in use much the way glyphosate did with the first generation of GMO crops. And we know from experience—and basic biology—that weeds will soon grow resistant to these herbicides, making GMO crop growers only more dependent on the next chemical fix.”
TTIP Will Destroy Public Health Care In The UK. Doctors have warned that public health medicine is under threat, to the detriment of the NHS and patients.
