ALERT OF THE WEEK:
EPA APPROVES PESTICIDE KNOWN
TO CAUSE CANCER & MISCARRIAGES
On October 5, the EPA approved a
new chemical fumigant for use on strawberries and other food crops across the
U.S. The pesticide, methyl iodide, vaporizes quickly, causing it to drift far
distances. Although the state of California has categorized it as cancer
causing, and the EPA admits it causes thyroid tumors, the Bush Administration
has been advocating approval of the fumigant for the better part of two years.
In a letter to EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson on September 25, the nation's
leading chemists asked EPA not to approve methyl iodide without further
scientific review. The chemical has been used to induce cancer in laboratory
experiments and causes neurological and thyroid problems, as well as
miscarriages in studies with laboratory animals. Farmworkers, families, rural
workers, and the food supply will now be subjected to exposure to the carcinogen
unless the EPA revokes the approval immediately.
