Hi Folks: Having read one article on this just do a search on www.Google.com

use the words fertilizer, toxic waste. You'll be amazed at the results.

Poision above raining down on us. But Argri-business represents the petrol

chemical fertilizer poisioning from below, effecting the land, the water and

food has been poisioning us since the fifties! In destroying the land, it

has destroyed the food chain, the food and eventually it will kill you and

me. The biggest business is food, water, energy, desease, and death. None

of it created by you and me the people!

 

Big Government has created it at, local, state, federal, Industrial,

Academic, and Military, and secret private concerns all under the secret

Octopus in the iron fist held over you the people created a world where all

are now slaves of the twenty first century earth under the One World Order.

DR. MERCOLA'S COMMENT:

 

One of my nutrition friends in Seattle, David Vaughan, describes this

story as one of the most devastating health problems of the century. The

health implications of this story are astounding.

 

I agree. The potential health implications of this story are indeed

astounding.

 

This is one amazing story.

 

I have included an Amazon review that describe the problem.

From Publishers Weekly

 

Patty Martin, a housewife, mother of four and mayor of the small

farming town of Quincy, Wash., began to notice a pattern of failing crops,

infertile topsoil and rare diseases in her community in the early 1990s.

 

When she asked tough questions about the pattern, she received

evasions and resistance from some local businesses and farmers, which only

made her dig deeper. Martin found that a product manufactured with sludge

from a waste pond in town, sold as fertilizer and spread on local farms,

stunted crops, destroyed quality topsoil and left high concentrations of

such heavy metals as cadmium, chromium and beryllium not usually present in

fertilizers.

 

As Martin pursued links between fertilizers, hazardous waste and

public health risks, she became increasingly unpopular in the town she was

trying to protect.

 

Growing beyond the conflict in Quincy, Wilson's investigation (which

led to a 1997 series of articles that were nominated for Pulitzer Prize

consideration) revealed that under prevailing state and federal laws,

polluting industries throughout the U.S. saved millions of dollars by

sending hazardous waste to fertilizer makers who in turn recycled the toxic

chemicals into a product sold to farmers and consumers without disclosing

what was in it.

 

In the resulting outcry, Washington State became the first to insist

that fertilizer companies provide detailed chemical analyses of their

products. Wilson's copious reporting and Patty Wilson's example make a

convincing case for a national policy on hazardous materials recycling.

 

Agent, Elizabeth Wales. (Sept. 13) Forecast: This lucid presentation

of the facts will stir the passions of readers already concerned about

environmental issues, but those accustomed to more gut-wrenching accounts of

similar transgressions, like A Civil Action and the film Erin Brockovich,

won't be drawn in as easily.
