The Bioscience Resource Project and the Center for Media and Democracy today are releasing a trove of rediscovered and newly digitized chemical industry and regulatory agency documents stretching back to the 1920s. The documents are available at PoisonPapers.org.
Together, the papers show that both industry and regulators understood the extraordinary toxicity of many chemical products and worked together to conceal this information from the public and the press. These papers will transform our understanding of the hazards posed by certain chemicals on the market and the fraudulence of some of the regulatory processes relied upon to protect human health and the environment. (emphasis added)
“These documents represent a tremendous trove of previously hidden or lost evidence on chemical regulatory activity and chemical safety. What is most striking about these documents is their heavy focus on the activities of regulators. Time and time again regulators went to the extreme lengths of setting up secret committees, deceiving the media and the public, and covering up evidence of human exposure and human harm. These secret activities extended and increased human exposure to chemicals […]
The WMD’s weren’t in Iraq folks, They were right here. It is very real. The U.S.A. is a corrupt corporate state happy to wage chemical warfare on citizens for profit. The U.S. military has proven to experiment with chemical (and other) agents on its own soldiers and the public. But the corporations are not to be outdone by the military. Stephen hit a bulls-eye on this one.
What I believe that we will find is that a large number of diseases that we struggle with today: cancers, ADHD, Autism, and more will turn out to be self-inflicted wounds from the chemical industry being permitted to produce unregulated hormone disrupting chemicals into the environment.
