Fatal Dangers Con...
Corporate greed resulting in the loss of life is the conclusion of a
major investigative report just published concerning the worldwide
asbestos trade and global epidemic of disease. The report, strongly
urging the rationale for a worldwide ban of asbestos, has been
published in print simultaneously with the release of a series of audio
broadcasts.
The investigative reports have been published by The Center for Public
Integrity (CPI) based on the investigative reporting of the British
Broadcasting Corporation's (BBC) joint venture with the International
Consortium of Investigative Journalists.
Jim Morris of CPI reports, "A global network of lobby groups has spent
nearly $100 million since the mid-1980s to preserve the market for
asbestos, a carcinogen now banned or restricted in 52 countries.
Scientists say asbestos may cause up to 10 million deaths by 2030, with
a mounting toll in the developing world."
Asbestos, for decades, has been linked to asbestosis, lung cancer and
mesothelioma. Mesothelioma remains an incurable and fatal disease.
Asbestos contamination remains an international problem. Recent reports
indicate that US military troops have been exposed to asbestos in Iraq
and Afghanistan through indiscriminate use of burn pits by military
contractors.
As a supporter for the improved health and welfare of individuals
against hazardous occupational and environmental exposures, Jon L.
Gelman advocates for changes in safety standards and safer use of
chemicals.Click here to read more about burn pit claims for benefits
