Release from Bullfrog Films: Homo Toxicus

Directed by Carole Poliquin. Produced by Carole Poliquin and Isaac Isitan.Carried out with intelligence and humor, Homo Toxicus explores the myriad links between toxic substances and increasing health problems such as cancer, allergies, hyperactivity, and infertility. Interviews with industry scientists and independent researchers shed light on inconsistent standards used for evaluation and regulation of chemical agents. The findings are disturbing and strongly challenge us to re-evaluate the laws and procedures currently in place to safeguard our health against man-made chemicals and potential environmental pollutants. Film is appropriate for grades 10 and above.
