Where are the bees? Experts hunt for clues

The notion that "It's unlikely that we are going to come up with a singlepathogen or cause" is relevant to autism and related disorders. Studies byPS Ross (eg, pmid 16835054) and others have shown that immunity is impairedin accord with the body-burden of toxins. Every study that has screenedhumans has found a large number of intra-body toxins. Several peer-reviewedstudies report that various pollutants are associated with autism andrelated disorders (eg, D'Amelio et al; Palmer RF et al; Windham et al). CCDseems directly parallel to the increases in autism and other neurologicaldisorders. The pro-industry posture includes insisting on single-toxinstudies, but that model diverts attention from the multiplicity of toxinsderived from profitable but adverse processes we generally accept as theblessings of modernity. Our air, earth, and water are increasingly toxic.Bees, humans, and other species have begun to pay a very high price.- - - -Where are the bees?
