Earth Poisons Contaminating Breast Milk

 

By James Donahue

September 2005

 

The toxic pollution of our planet has become so severe that even if the earth wasn’t dying, we might still be in the process of destroying ourselves.

 

A new report by the California Environmental Protection Agency and Northwest Environment Watch warns that toxic levels of polybrominated diphenyl ethers, or a flame retardant known as PBDEs, is showing up in the breast milk of tested mothers.

 

Other toxins, including polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, used for insulating electrical equipment before the chemical was banned in the late 1970s, also are found in breast milk.

 

The report, released last week at a Dioxin 2005 international conference in Toronto, shows that 30 percent of the mothers tested in a study of women in the Northwest United States had higher levels of PBDEs than PCBs in their bodies.

 

The study suggests that PBDE contamination may now be surpassing PCB contamination in humans and the environment.

 

PBDEs are still being used mostly as a flame retardant in upholstered furniture, computers, televisions, carpets and drapes. The stuff consequently is everywhere around us, especially in our homes and places where we work. It is found to disrupt thyroid hormones that can impact the developing brain in children. There are also early indications that the chemical is a carcinogen. Some researchers are saying PBDEs are as severe a problem as PCB.

 

For those who need a refresher course, PCBs are a mixture of chlorinated compounds that were once commonly used in inks, dyes, paints, adhesives, carbonless paper, lubricants, flame-retardants, surface coatings and industrial fluids. It literally found its way into the water and soil in every corner of the planet before the alarms were sounded and its manufacture was banned. But banned too late. The damage has already been done. It is in our food, and even the smog we breathe.

 

PCB is found to cause cancers, liver, kidney and nervous system disorders plus developmental and reproductive problems.

 

In short, the magical chemistries of the 1950 failed to give us a better life, as everybody thought they would. They have polluted and poisoned our environment to a point where all lives, and especially the lives of children are severely threatened.

 

The technology does not exist to fix this problem. But then, as psychic Aaron C. Donahue is saying, our purpose is not to continue procreating our species anymore. We are a dying race of beings on a dying planet.

 

The best we can hope for now is that we can come to our senses and take steps to preserve our planet and our environment so that humans can stay around long enough to try to figure a way out of this dilemma.

 

Failure to do this is extinction.
