Cancer and asthma rates are skyrocketing now, with 1 in 2 projected to get cancer, and more than 40% of us will develop asthma related problems. It is a near certainty that you or a loved one of yours will be afflicted with life-altering, disabling and possibly deadly asthma or cancer.

Ok, so now we know that asthma and cancer are definately related to toxins, and the source for those damaging toxins is equally from air pollution and toxins in the products we purchase.

Air pollution is approximately half from industry, and half from the cars we drive.

So, about 1/4th of the cancers and asthma cases are from the cars we drive. And yet, we drive those same kinds of cars we have driven for so many years, as all this disease developed - low mileage polluting gas guzzlers.

It is unconscionable that people with kids who have asthma go out and buy a new vehicle. There are some new vehicles now that almost meet a standard of pollution that is acceptable, but none that actually use "the best affordable technology" that could be offered by the carmakers. You are doing this to your own kid.

I am sure if you KNEW this fact, you might change, but by now if you are depending on major news media to tell you, you are just asleep, one of the sheeple. In other words - YOU SHOULD KNOW. I just told you. Believe me, not the news - who has money to lose? Not me.... I get my facts from Wendy Mesley and other victims who found out and took risks reporting it ; not from a new release by the corporations who produce the deadly products.

-------------------------------------------------
TWO OTHER ISSUES RELATED TO THIS:

#1
ALL of the toxins that cause these new illnesses are from hydrocarbons and petrochemicals [fossil fuels like crude oil and natural gas]. Blame can be assigned to various people, but there is only one source of the "new diseases" that arise from toxins - it is the petrochemicals. Reduce our use of them - DUH!!!!

------
#2:
Why do you believe those corporate announcments on the safety of their products - because they are on major media news? LOL

Believe me - carcinogenic substances cause cancer - is that so hard to accept? Asthma is from BAD AIR - right?
Health Canada and the Canadian Cancer Society and the Asthma Society of Canada DO NOT admit that "toxins cause these diseases" - because they are in bed with media and corporations. So take it with a grain of salt, and put some stock in those like me who have no alterior motivation.

What exactly are "asthma related problems"? Who says 40% of us will get them?

There is no way you can say 1/4 of the cancers and asthma cases are caused by cars with any scientific basis. They are both multifactorial diseases. Asthma is not just from bad air. Anyone who tells you otherwise is just a crackpot with an agenda.

Re: Tri-Sodium-Nitrila-tri-acetate :ignorance is no excuse

Tri-Sodium-Nitrila-tri-acetate is an ingeredient in laundry detergents, listed on the labels in most cases. It is a well known dangerous cancer causing chemical. The manufacturer says that at these concentrations, its not dangerous. But we often wash clothes more than once in a lifetime.... so it accumulates until you get cancers
The Authorites are not dening this. They say life is risky. So, reduce your risk by staying away from maainstream detergents then!! Health Canada should be telling us that, but their corporate overlords won't like it, so they don't.

But nobody denys it is true, this chemical does cause cancer if you are exposed to it regularly. Fact.


Avoid it!! - this means avoiding most commercial brands, and going with the more expensive "natural" detergents, OR the option of using baking soda, a little H2O2, and just a smidgen of natural detergents to get a REALLY great clean.

Why H2O2? hydrogen Peroxide is great cleaner, really whitens stuff - careful with colours. It is not in common use because the corporations cannot get a patent on naturally occuring compounds. People who do not care if corporations like it or not will use it and they will find a better cleaning is done, that is is a "spot remover extrodinaire" , and if you get some on you it makes your hands softer thant ever before, as well as giving your tissues more OXYGEN, which is the primary mechanism of defending against dieseases and infections - oxidation.

But sure, go ahead and buy Tide with Tri-Sodium-Nitrila-tri-acetate, you will find hospitals to be very nice places, to die or to lose parts of your anatomy [cancer].

its true, but there you go changing the channel - this is a mjor crime and its right here in front of you, going on with the approval of our own government regulators, caught between the soft customers and the hard corporations.

What to do? - if people were as aware as I am, they would have stopped buying TIDE , etc., years ago , like I did. My clothes are still getting cleaned very well thank you.
That way, procter-gamble [with your life?] corporation would have gone out of business or changed their detergent formulation to a non-carcinogenic one.

And yet you still support the deadly products. That affects me too, it gets in the air, in the groundwater, and when I hug you it gets on me.
I am not doing anything to ruin your life or health, am I? I am only taking a dangerous chemical away - is that too much hardship for you, will you complain that I am affecting your life? - you don't have a leg to stand on buddy, my friend. it was lost to cancer.

So, people who buy carcionogenic products are Guilty of some form of assault causing bodily harm. Morally, you have become a member of the evil side of life, the stuff that does harm. Your igorance is no longer an excuse - I just informed you of what you need to know.
