European Union Delays Banning Hormone-Disrupting Toxic Chemicals in Diapers

There are chemicals flooding the entire environment that have all kinds of horrible affects on human beings.

But no one really cares about any of it, and they instead justify it, while going on and on about how carbon is a poisonous gas that changes the weather, which is literally not true at all.

90 per cent of babies are being exposed to highly toxic nappies, according to a report.

The research conducted in France suggests this could lead to threats of grave disease in later life.

An agency called ANSES tested best-selling brands of disposable nappies and found 38 “very severe hazard” chemicals in those sold throughout Europe. Most of the chemicals disrupt hormones, the officials say, which means they are not considered safe.

1,000 nappies are made in Europe every minute. The market is worth €7 billion a year and is dominated by two brands, Pampers (36 per cent) and Huggies (2 per cent).

The study estimates that over 14 million European children could suffer “potentially very severe, variable and latent diseases affecting their quality of life over their lifetime”.

This includes cancers, suspected endocrine (hormone) disruption and even reprotoxic effects (affecting fertility). Children are particularly vulnerable to chemicals, according to the World Health Organisation.

That first hyperlink in the above paragraph leads to an article about how “climate change” is supposedly killing people.

Because even in an article about something that’s actually killing people, they needed to give the cow farts hoax a mention.

They must have a quota or something.

After the research was first published in 2019, ANSES followed up by testing 9 major brands. They found only one of the chemicals still present, formaldehyde, a carcinogen – suggesting that brands had at least responded in some way.

But contamination could return, so the agency asked the EU to strictly limit the chemicals in nappies.

That proposal is being resisted by EU institutions. The bloc was due to protect consumers by passing a law this week, but they missed their legal deadline.

“Every day, parents risk exposing their new born babies to toxic chemicals simply by changing their diapers. It should not be up to parents to know whether the nappies they are using may be toxic or not,” says Maria Arena, Member of the European Parliament Committee on Environment, Public Health and Food Safety and campaigner on chemical issues.

“The EU must step up and ban those substances in nappies and ensure a toxic-free environment for all.”

The European Chemicals Agency acknowledges potential risks, saying the chemicals should not be present, but claims the French researchers failed to properly demonstrate a risk to children.

Who knows how much of this whole bizarre “transformation of humanity” phenomenon is due to social factors and how much of it is due to biological factors, but we do know that the biological factors are due to environmental toxins and the process of growing and processing food.

If you were going to spend trillions of dollars trying to fix a problem, it seems like it would be this, rather than some fake problem like coronavirus, global warming, police racism, or democracy in the Ukraine.
