3. intergenerational endocrine disruptors are prevalent in our water supply
Edited on Mon Feb-05-07 09:24 PM by Mabus
thanks to herbicides and pesticides. About ten years ago I did some work and ran across information about EDs. Some of the stuff is heavy and around these parts they were testing water in February, before the agricultural run-offs from melting snow, and reporting acceptable levels. Moreover, they were only testing the surface portion of the water, not the middle or bottom portions where some of the heavier components end-up. It is also seeping into groundwater aquifers which in turn are being used by people and animals for drinking water and for watering crops. Basically, we're getting hit with it from all sides.
