Note from Fluoride Action Network: Incredibly, Cockcroft states below, “There is no evidence of harm and there is regular health monitoring in fluoridated areas…” Wrong on both counts. • The three most recent mother-offspring fluoride studies (Till 2020, Green 2019, Bashash 2017) reported lowered IQ in the offspring, as well as in bottle-fed infants (Till), […]
MANSFIELD – Thomas Yeransian said he believes it’s time to rethink adding fluoride to the town water supply. Yeransian has filed a citizens’ petition asking Town Meeting voters to discontinue adding sodium fluoride or any other fluoridation chemical “in order to protect vulnerable populations from over exposure to fluoride…” The article will go before Town […]
Establishing the Allowance Allocation and Trading Program Under the American Innovation and Manufacturing Act SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency is proposing to issue regulations to implement certain provisions of the American Innovation and Manufacturing Act, as enacted on December 27, 2020. This rulemaking proposes to: • Establish the hydrofluorocarbon production and consumption baselines based on […]
New environmental data at Tiwai Pt aluminium smelter shows sea level rise is destroying bores within scores of metres of where 100,000 tonnes of hazardous waste is stored. Photo: RNZ / Nate McKinnon Coastal erosion has already shut down one bore used to monitor groundwater for pollution, and threatens to take out a second. These […]
Until about a decade ago, weekdays at the Agatsya Sperm Bank in Rajkot saw men, aged between 20 to 30 years, queue up outside the facility. A quick screening, and the young, athletic, qualified, English-speaking men among them would be picked out. For, it would be certain that they would have sufficient volumes of “healthy […]
Abstract Background: Despite recommendations that pre-school children use toothpaste containing 500-550ppm of fluoride, there has been an increase in non-fluoridated toothpastes marketed for children. This study will investigate children’s toothpaste in Australia. Methods: A comprehensive audit of all toothpastes marketed for pre-school children and available in-store in the Macarthur region of NSW, Australia was conducted. […]
Highlights State of the art presented on the use of various bioadsorbents and plants in defluoridation. Effect of parameters such as pH, temperature and kinetics is discussed. Overview of F– adsorption mechanisms, thermodynamic studies and uptake mechanisms. Exploration and selection of low-cost adsorbents and phytoremediators is required. Necessity of modification and commercialisation of specific adsorbents […]
Abstract [Article in Russian] Diseases of the oral cavity are considered as a health problem for the population of the whole world, in particular, Ukraine. Purpose of the study – to analyze the risk factors, legislative, financial, personnel support for the prevention and treatment of oral diseases of the population of Ukraine; to develop a […]
Highlights High fluoride groundwater risk map was generated. Climate variables are the most important indicators. High fluoride risk areas comprise a total of 27.6% of the country. About 89 million rural people are at health risk due to fluoride exposure. The risk map can be used by authorities to prioritize fluoride mitigation. Abstract Endemic fluorosis […]
(Updated May 2021) Molten salt reactors operated in the 1960s. They are seen as a promising technology today principally as a thorium fuel cycle prospect or for using spent LWR fuel. A variety of designs is being developed, some as fast neutron types. Global research is currently led by China. Some have solid fuel similar […]
