Tons of information on Yahoo group for people with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity
Yahoo group called Green Canary, founded in 2000, has 557 members with an average of about 100-150 messages a month. Great resource!
Description
This list is dedicated to a life free from toxic chemicals, and the health problems that they can cause.People who suffer from Environmental Illness (such as Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, or MCS) are often referred to as “canaries”: like the canary in a coal mine, people with extreme chemical sensitivities provide a warning sign that the human body cannot tolerate indefinitely the toxic chemicals we have invented, and with which we have made much of our world unsafe for habitation – not only for us, but for many, perhaps most, other forms of life as well.
Fish kills, mutant frogs, and human cancers all sound a warning in the voice of the canary; but, it is people with Chemical Sensitivity who are made most immediately aware of just how prevalent toxic chemicals are in our modern world.
Here we can come together and share the information and experiences that have taught each of us a piece of the knowledge necessary to survive and thrive, eliminating unnecessary toxic chemicals from our lives, and replacing them with the elements of health and the alternatives offered by the natural world around us.
