		<description>Linda, I came across this post today by Janelle at Healthy Child Healthy World who says she&#039;s seeing a shift in parents&#039; focus from &quot;What can I buy?&quot; to &quot;What can I do?&quot; http://tinyurl.com/n5qq4q

Healthy Child Healthy World offers a Healthy Community Toolkit with guidance on what to DO to affect change from local schools to cities to national initiatives http://healthychild.org/issues/policies/</description>

		<description>One reason we who warn are expendable, is because the chemical and pharmaceutical industries are so closely related and extremely huge and powerful in politics. 

As long as &quot;health care&quot; consists primarily of taking a drug to numb the symptom instead of treating the cause, they are all laughing their way to the bank. 

The cosmetics industry is right in there with them, covering up true and natural beauty with toxic chems, just to make a buck and disempower women. 

So far, there hasn&#039;t been anyone powerful enough to be pushing prevention. It&#039;s taking a very long time for women to wake up, to feel strong and beautiful without make-up (or shaved legs - how industry created that need is another interesting story), and/or to start demanding completely safe products. 

Perhaps new moms are beginning to be clued in, for baby&#039;s sake, but once they start down that toxic path of &quot;convenience&quot;, most will still not give up their hair dye, fragranced lotions, or fabric softener if told it could be harming their child.</description>

		<description>I think that&#039;s really true, Leslie, lots of people are getting sick from this toxic crap but aren&#039;t connecting the dots. Evidently, those of us who are sensitive, are considered totally expendable in our free market society.</description>

		<description>I think long before they&#039;ll really regulate the body care products, people need to start being educated about what they are mixing all over their body, in their clothes, hair, houses... ect - I find it an amazing point that when all the ingredients are added up the numbers fall into the hundreds. It&#039;s amazing more people don&#039;t have serious MCS- but honestly I think all that crap is causing chronic illness, cancer, and other bad health problems. People with MCS just notice where it&#039;s coming from after a long struggle and try to stop being exposed.</description>
