Comments by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

Looking for a quick and easy way to pollute the environment and destroys huge populations of fish and ocean creatures? It's simple: Just take more pharmaceuticals and urinate!

Prescription drugs are now used in such large numbers that they have become an environmental hazard. When you take drugs, they aren't simply "used up" by the body; they pass through and get funneled into water treatment systems. The bad news is that water treatment facilities don't remove pharmaceuticals, so they get flushed downstream where they destroy aquatic ecosystems while contaminating the water supplies of farms and cities that happen to be downstream.

There's actually Prozac in the public water supply! (Perhaps municipal water companies will now be charged with practicing medicine without a license for distributing prescription drugs to citizens without a prescription...)

Huh? What environmental problem?

Drug companies try to pretend this problem doesn't exist, and the mainstream media has largely ignored it, too. Meanwhile, fish are being born with double sets of reproductive organs, and fish infertility rates are skyrocketing. The humans who eat those fish are, likewise, expressing unprecedented rates of hormone-related health disorders such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, infertility and much more.

Those disease, in turn, get treated with yet more prescription drugs! Then those drugs are urinated back into the groundwater supply where the density of synthetic chemicals continues to increase. Sound insane? It is.

Today, the fish are mutants. Tomorrow, it will be the human population. The widespread abuse and marketing of pharmaceuticals is threatening the health of not just today's ecosytems, but the health of humans, too.

Pro pharma = anti-environment

You cannot be pro-environment while taking prescription drugs. Taking drugs while claiming to be in favor of environmental protection is like driving a Hummer while claiming to support renewable energy. Or drinking vodka while leading the local AA meeting. Consuming pharmaceuticals puts you directly in conflict with the philosophy of preserving the environment, protecting life, and ensuring the safety of our global water supplies.
