Guest guest Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 THOUSANDS OF EPA SCIENTISTS ISSUE WARNING ON FLUORIDE Over 7,000 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) employees have called on Congress to pass a moratorium on the use of fluoride in drinking water, citing a series of new studies directly connecting the chemical to cancer. The group, made up predominantly of EPA scientists, has sent letters to key Congressional committees and the EPA Secretary, calling for the EPA to classify fluoride as a human carcinogen. At this point, it appears the National Academy of Sciences is being instructed to review relevant studies and report to Congress and the EPA on the topic in early 2006. The OCA will be calling on its supporters to take action when that report is released. http://www.organicconsumers.org/foodsafety/flouride090105.cfm Caroline Collard World's first fully certified organic skin, body, oral and health care products www.happyandhealthy.org.uk To help you stay safe and secure online, we've developed the all new Security Centre.
