Newborn babies arrive pre-poisoned by industrial chemicals

Newborn babies begin life with hundreds of man-made chemicals in their blood, according to a report released yesterday. Blood from the umbilical cords of 10 infants born in U.S. hospitals in 2004 showed an average of 200 industrial compounds, pollutants, pesticides and other chemicals, according to the Environmental Working Group based in Washington, D.C. This just makes me want to cry. We must protect children from cancer, and it can be done by not purchasing these chemicals anymore. Vote with you wallet people, you don't need those chemicals. If we don't buy them, they'll stop making them.

I say we put MORE chemicals into the babies! Anything to keep them quiet.
