Nearly 800,000 refugees in Africa have had their food rations slashed by up to 60 percent, threatening to push many to the brink of starvation, the United Nations warned Tuesday. The cuts are "threatening to worsen already unacceptable levels of acute malnutrition, stunting and anemia, particularly in children," the UN's World Food Programme and refugee agency UNHCR said in a joint statement. The heads of the two agencies were in Geneva Tuesday to make an urgent appeal to government representatives for more funds to help feed Africa's refugees. "It is unacceptable in today's world of plenty for refugees to face chronic hunger," said UNHCR chief Antonio Guterres. Source: AFP

It's 'bout time, seriously!  As humans and citizens of our world, we deserve, quite simply, basic standards of health and ways to nourish ourselves. We should not accept the status quo; we should demand better!  (And it's not like we're asking a lot, are we?) 

For more information visit: http://disinfo.com/unacceptable-levels/ "Your body is ground zero." Over 80,000 chemicals flow through our system of commerce, and many are going straight into our bodies. Even our unborn children are affected. Due to this constant exposure, we have approximately 200 synthetic industrial chemicals interacting with our cells every single day. Until recently, modern science really didn't understand what that could mean for all of us in the long run, but that is changing. UNACCEPTABLE LEVELS opens the door to conversations about the chemical burden our bodies carry so that we can make informed decisions now and in the future. The film poses challenges to our companies, our government, and our society to do something about a nearly-unseen threat with the inspired knowledge that small changes can generate a massive impact.

rent this must see documentary online here.  

80,000 Chemicals Good video on the chemicals we are exposed to. Only 3 minutes!

This is a must read. Evidence promoting Organic products keeps pilling up. Buy as many Organic products as possible to keep yourself and your family at lower toxins exposure. There are plenty we simply cant avoid just in the air and environment but when it comes to our food and what we put in our bodies: we STILL have a choice. Go organic! :)
