Description: Herbicides and pesticides used in farming, cleaning products used by industries, and hormones injected into animals all get passed along to living things through the food chain with devastating effects. This fascinating book uses real-life examples to explore the toxins in our food chain and the ways in which people can reduce their own toxic pollution.
