Inevitable Contamination - assignment 3/4
Sandra Steingraber's, Having Faith, draws attention to an very few are willing to face; the effect of toxins used by humans. Many people have discussed the effects of chemicals on humans, but I have never thought of the fact that infants are affected the most. I found the facts Steingraber provided about the toxins in breast milk both very interesting and alarming. Indeed, something needs to be done about this problem. I agree with Steingraber that finding a solution to this is nearly impossible. Chemicals are vital for farmers to produce a good, profit-making crop. With so many chemicals being used by humans, it is improbable to try to eliminate them from our diet. Right now, the only choice we have is to try to reduce our emissions of these toxic chemicals into the environment.
