Who is at Risk?

By Katy Califf

Everyone is at risk. There is not one living being on the planet that has not been exposed. No human has been born for at least 3 decades without some exposure in the womb. Every person today has several hundred chemicals in their body that were not part of human body chemistry before the 20^th century. Synthetic endocrine disruptors are in contaminated water, air, food, and soil. They are also introduced intentionally through cleaners, pesticides, food additives, cosmetics and countless other sources. No ecosystem on the planet has been unmarred by these chemicals and now we can only wait to see what the end result will be.
