Dr. Sandra Steingraber says the regulatory system is deaf

Dr. Sandra Steingraber

Is our energy infrastructure causing cancer? 

Our guest Dr. Sandra Steingraber says "the regulatory system is deaf to the voice that the data has and the message it's trying to give."  

In Part 1 this week The causes of cancer seem to be everywhere. From makeup products, to the clothes we wear, and the furniture we buy. And even if it has a pink ribbon on it to support breast cancer awareness, Karuna Jaggar of Breast Cancer Action says it's very possible that the contents are cancer-causing.
