Posters

These posters here at ehtrust.org Environmental Health Trust can be printed up and put in offices, worksites, and apartment buildings. There are now no regulations about the electronic world. But we have been living and working in more and more of it. Even if you don’t feel it, it is part of the explanation of some disabilities and dysfunction. And yet I do continue to write on this iPad.
The stated mission of EHT is to “promote a healthier environment through research, education, and policy”.

Shade

Christopher Shade, PhD is a globally recognized expert about testing and detoxing mercury (a potent neurotoxin).  He has been featured in DAMS (Dental Amalgam Mercury Solutions) newsletter articles in more recent years. (Entry 8/20/20 DAMS).

His tri-test using urine, blood, and hair through Quicksilver Scientific shows levels of different forms of mercury and gives some indication of kidney functioning.  This is a newer test.

The test kit can be ordered by any individual in Virginia online  You return the kit by mail with your specimens.  The cost (not covered by insurance) includes explanation of results.  For detox you may, but need not choose this company.

Although some forms of mercury have been banned in my lifetime, other sources remain.

William and Mary geology students have been appreciative of DAMS participating in college Earth Day events.  They understand they are being exposed to some mercury in their coursework.  But many folks using skin lighteners aren’t aware that there are now some 19 products in this country containing a very high level of mercury.  I learned that detail from the Sierra Club.

Possible (not published 12/20) movies

“Kiss the Ground” – narrated by Woody Harrelson.  It shows how some folks in this country are turning some details around to restore our soil.  A must-see movie for environmentalists!  Woody Harrelson, an environmentalist, said he feels like🙃living in this country.  Me too.  He also has an environmental website.

“Percy” – stars Christopher Walken, a favorite comedian from TV’s “Saturday Night Live”.  But this is a serious role where he is a farmer working on land his family has owned and worked on for generations.  This is a true story.  It represents what many other farmers are dealing with – Monsanto.  Monsanto was a global corporation giving us altered foods, not promoting health.  They were bought out by another to confuse us making choices.

“Story of God” – This is a series where Morgan Freeman interviews people in different cultures to better understand what people believe about the divine nature of human beings.  Nowadays the people who come to this country and this town to settle here are really from everywhere.  Places like Kazakhstan and Nepal, places we may never have heard of.

“My Octopus Teacher” – This is a documentary of one man’s curiosity and friendship with an octopus, really quite an intelligent being with 8 arms.

“We Bought A Zoo” – Single dad, Matt Damon, decides to have a business where he can spend quality time with his children.  This heart-warming story is true.

Rick Steves is a world traveler.  But what is offered through his website is mainly his tours through Europe.  Quite nice for lockdown time.

“Dirty Waters” 2019 film.  Ignore soft porn bashing pics that pop up to learn about Parkersburg West Virginia and a chemical company who’s been doing business in this state for at least 35 years.

“From Farm to Fork and Back:  Dinner table Conversations” was the theme of the 2018 Earth Day at William and Mary.  Dr Vendana Shiva, author, global environmental activist.
