HOW YELLOW IS YOUR URINE?
Chemicals have so thoroughly saturated our planet that we are unable to remove pharmaceuticals from our drinking water, antibiotics are creating super bacteria that are very difficult to kill, plastics are filling our landfills, sea life is dying off from contamination, etc...
Are we really any better off using so much chemicals in our lives? Would we live longer and happier lives if we relied more on substances that are biodegradeable and safe for the environment?
How will we deal with the ever increasing toxic sludge that seeps into every pore of our bodies and is constantly making the earth less habitable?
We can filter our water, but where do the filtered chemicals go? - back into the water system eventually.
All chemicals must be broken down or catalyzed into substances that are safe - we can make alot of money by using them in the short term - but how much will it cost to clean them up in the long run? Will we even have the ability to clean our earth and bodies in the not-too-distant future?
Chemicals are crude mechanisms for altering biological function - especially when digested and metabolized into a multitude of unknown compounds.
------------
Better to live without a capitalistic mass-produced lifestyle and screen for bad genes before they are propagated - giving us less need to use chemicals.
Out of sight out of mind?
