| Description: | Select Guide Rating Every person on our planet is poisoned every day by our chemical emissions. Julian Cribb explains the scale of the threat to individuals, human society, and life on Earth. He proposes a new Human Right - not to be poisoned - and maps an empowering, hopeful path to a safer, cleaner world. Every person on our home planet is affected by a worldwide deluge of man-made chemicals and pollutants - most of which have never been tested for safety. Our chemical emissions are six times larger than our total greenhouse gas emissions. They are in our food, our water, the air we breathe, our homes and workplaces, the things we use each day. This universal poisoning affects our minds, our bodies, our genes, our grandkids, and all life on Earth. Julian Cribb describes the full scale of the chemical catastrophe we have unleashed. He proposes a new Human Right - not to be poisoned. He maps an empowering and hopeful way forward: to rid our planet of these toxins and return Earth to the clean, healthy condition which our forebears enjoyed, and our grandchildren should too. |
