I think we can't ignore issues
relating to contamination.  But I also think the most prudent course is to
cont. to support bfg. and to simultaneously work with environmentalists to
reduce the pollution in the food chain.

Yes, Barbara, I agree,
But we must certainly not forget that not breastfeeding will add to the
pollution for all the  milk tah must be produced by cows, has to be
transported and manufactured and packaged ans transported again. The
production, transport and waisting effects of infant formula for miljons ans
miljons of childrens is a major factor in ruining the environment of others.
And, also good to keep in mind: that as human milk is an indicator for
pollutionrate, so is amniotic fluid.

Warmly greeting,

Gonneke
