I’ve been reading about the link between autism and vaccinations lately. It’s alarming and maddening. When I was a kid back in the early 80s, children received around 10 vaccinations. The number of vaccinations today that are recommended is 36–quite a significant increase.
Chad and I have a new hero as of late–RFK Jr. We’ve been admiring the work he does as an Environmental lawyer. It was interesting to discover that he also has spoken out about the harmful levels of mercury in vaccinations. You can access some of his articles through this website that addresses this issue. www.putchildrenfirst.org

I saw Al Gore’s documentary, An Inconvenient Truth, yesterday. He did a great job of relating the very real concern of global warming and did so with scientific facts and data and personal insight and candor. He is very passionate about the way we are impacting our earth. I recommend going to see this movie! Check out the movie’s website, www.climatecrisis.net, which has some awesome tips that you as an individual can do to help decrease the rate that our planet is heating up. It is tempting to blow this off because it is not a threat that is at our doorstep, but if we continue to ignore the ways we choose to live and how they impact the earth, the planet will continue to react to us in increasingly horrific ways. Global warming is a global threat that requires all of the nations of the world working together to battle this impending crisis.
Also here is Whole Foods website, it’s the link as to why eating organic is the way to go!
