I would've rather read this material than sit for eight mins agonizing. So put a link before hand next time for viewers who don't wanna hear this lady speak.

May 4, 2012 - I'm so glad you touched on a lot of subjects, especially companies who sell "pink" products to find a cure for cancer. I work in a wholesale beauty supply store, and I hate participating in Breast Cancer Awareness Month - with all the hairsprays, hair products, body products, nail care, etc. that we sell, it's sickening for these companies to profit from slapping a pink ribbon on them (check ThinkBeforeYouPink's website).

May 12, 2012 - Sure they are. Bottom line is profit. If they can make it cheaper by going eco-friendly they will, it they can't, they won't. Any other motivation in a business would kill it. That is the reality.

May 15, 2012 - You guys realize being alive is linked to cancer. You might get cancer from watching this bullshit though. Most of her facts are actually just opinions but this entire message is useless because a lot of people feed on bull shit as long as they get satisfaction from doing shit that does not matter. FYI 80% of the f

May 15, 2012 - 80% of her claims are based on biased propaganda. This is why she stopped releasing the sources of her info.

May 16, 2012 - It makes me very happy to know that I know most of this already! In reality its much easier than this. Almost ANYTHING produced under mass production and very large, generic companies= pollution, toxins and careless packages. Our health is the least of the comoanies worries. Then again, if you try to buy and "basic" as possible that could lead to also-generic products. Competition of certain companies are at fault,too. What we need is anew system of clean Capitalism.

May 16, 2012 - Meanwhile, boycotting toxics and certain companies dont waith for a change and dont hold your breath-it will take a while before a REAL change is done. During this process, use as natural products as possible. (And this doesnt mean "natural" labled products) but do your research for 15 mintues and see what Earthbound goods are good for skin, hair, facials etc. for example, I use Olive Oil as a skin lubricant and mayonnaise+egg for dry hair (yes, mayo folks) and local,all-organic handmade soap.
