I have been aware of this for a few years. I read about it in a book by Stephen Harrod Buhner (also a man of many scientific degrees) called The Lost Language of Plants Interestingly, plants have complex immune systems that are affected by chemical changes in the parts per billion range. Most of the life on our planet are affected by such "minute" chemical alterations. We do not live here on this planet alone. If there is a blip over here in the single-celled neighborhood, then guess what? It will affect us too. We live in a loop. The drug residue pissed out by your next door neighbor on chemotherapy is not the extent of the pharmaceuticals that land in our environment. A much larger amount of toxins are produced as a by-product of the manufacturing process and released into the environment.
Any continued attempt to brush aside the damage we are doing to ourselves and our world at this point seem grimly laughable to me.
In the end, our choices as CONSUMERS dictates our future.
over and out, good buddy.
