In a March 2010 report titled, "Reducing Environmental Cancer Risk: What we do," concludes a presidential panel real burden of environmentally induced cancer has been grossly underestimated. The report's author wrote in a letter to President Obama, "The panel urges you most strongly to use the power of your office to remove the carcinogens and other toxins from our food, water, and air in vain increasing health care costs, cripple our nation's productivity, and destroy the lives of Americans. "
Speaking of Environmental Cancer Reports ... Dr. Jennifer Lowry, a medical toxicologist at Children's Mercy Hospitals and Clinics in Kansas City, Mo., said, "The report was finally lend a voice to be heard that the environment does not play a significant role in the health of all people of all ages."
We believe there are lifestyle factors that contribute to the problem of cancer in the United States, but if there are no environmental factors cancer death rate would be more evenly distributed across the country from them. We agree with the panel ... environmental factors have been poorly investigated in the past and strongly support more rigorous testing in the future. We have set up "Maps Cancer Cluster" special that shows where you live can have a strong influence on the hood of your chances of dying from cancer. It makes no attempt to identify the environmental issues, but does not show where someone might want to take a look at the impact of cancer....
