Nonetheless, scientists find that neither of these is as serious nor as pressing as another emerging threat: chemical poisoning.

Extinction imminent: Last pod of killer whales in the U.K. will die out because toxic chemicals have made the females sterile
Extinction is imminent for killer whales off the coast of the United Kingdom. The cause of the whale’s population decline isn’t some abstract concept called “climate change.” The whales are being sterilized in their own habitat by a toxic chemical called perfluorinated biphenyls (PCBs). For the most part, PCBs are banned. A product of Monsanto, […]

We’re STILL haunted by DDT – new study says it causes autism
When the evidence that DDT was harmful could no longer be ignored, the use of the chemical was banned completely in 1972. If you thought this was a problem of the past, however, think again: New research shows that it’s still causing autism five decades later. That’s because this chemical is still in our ecosystem. […]

New study shows that the current concentrations of PCBs in the oceans are threatening the world’s population of killer whales

Your house dust is full of chemicals – here’s how to eliminate the threat without resorting to more chemicals
Modern-day pollution is making dust a part of our lives. It’s in the air we breathe, and in the place where we spend the biggest part of our lives in — at home.

Due to global human pollution, the arctic has become a toxic reservoir of heavy metals, PCBs and other deadly chemicals
Human-induced pollution has greatly affected the Greenland ice sheet and the whole Arctic region over the last few decades. Back in the late 1950s, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built Camp Century, an army base located just below the surface of the ice sheet.
