I love TED. I have never watched a TED talk and been disappointed. This morning I started watching Tyrone Hayes and Penelope Jagessar Chaffer's "The toxic baby." It is well worth your time and I even had my 10 and 11 year old daughters watch with me. It's never too early to start teaching kids about being environmentally aware.
According to this TED talk, we will have between 30 and 50 THOUSAND chemicals in our bodies that our grandparents never did. It can't be a coincidence that the incidence of things such as cancer, asthma, heart disease, ADHD, and Autism Spectrum Disorders are skyrocketing in the generations since our grandparents.
Do me a favor and watch the video. Then let me know what you think!
