The landmark book about the toxicity of everyday life, updated, revised and re-issued for its 10th anniversary, along with the experiments from Smith and Lourie's second book, Toxin Toxout. It's amazing how little can change in a decade. In 2009, a book transformed the way we see our frying pans, thermometers and tuna sandwiches. Daily life was bathing us in countless toxins that accumulated in our tissues, were passed on to our children and damaged our health. To expose the extent of this toxification, environmentalists Rick Smith and Bruce Lourie offered themselves to science and undertook a series of over a dozen experiments to briefly raise their personal levels of mercury, BPA, Teflon and other pollutants. The ease with which ordinary activities caused dangerous levels to build in their bodies was a wake-up call, and readers all over the world responded. But did government regulators and corporations? Ten years later, there is good news. But not much. Concise, shocking, practical and hopeful, this new combined edition of one of the most important books ever published about green living will put the nasty stuff back where it belongs: on the national agenda and out of our bodies.
Unser Alltag belastet uns mit Giften und schädigt unsere Gesundheit. Deswegen experimentierten die kanadischen Umweltschützer Rick Smith und Bruce Lourie 2009 an sich selbst.

Auf diesen Weckruf reagierten Leser weltweit – aber auch Gesetzgeber und Unternehmen? Zehn Jahre später gibt es gute Nachrichten. Aber nicht viele. Wissenschaftlich fundiert und voller Tipps für den eigenen Alltag, packend und optimistisch: Das Plädoyer der beiden Kanadier für ein gesundes, nachhaltiges Leben bringt das üble Zeug zurück auf die gesellschaftliche Agenda und raus aus unseren Körpern. Ein wegweisendes Buch, zum 10-jährigen Erscheinen der Erstausgabe aktualisiert, erweitert und – gefördert vom Canada Council for the Arts – ins Deutsche übersetzt
