CBD oil, or cannabidiol oil, is an extract made from the hemp plant, which is a member of the cannabis family. Many of the stigmas surrounding cannabis oil come from a misunderstanding about the classification of the plant. Yes, cannabis does produce marijuana buds. No, this does not mean that CBD oil will get you high. In fact, CBD oil does not contain enough THC to get you high. THC is the psychoactive component found in marijuana. CBD oil offers only the medicinal benefits.

She shows us what's at stake, and writes of the fraudulent science that disguises these issues, along with cancer clusters not being reported. She writes of the saga of PG&E that continues to this day, and of the communities and people she has worked with who have helped to make an impact.

These things—from deodorant, cosmetics, dental floss, and sunscreen to laundry detergent, air fresheners, carpets, and crayons to candles, tea bags, cell phones, and chewing gum—are ubiquitous in daily life . . . and they are wreaking havoc on our health and our planet.

Resumen del Editor
The beauty industry is a multi-billion dollar industry that touches nearly every aspect of our lives. From makeup and skincare to hair care and fragrance, we spend a significant amount of money on products that are designed to enhance our appearance and make us feel good about ourselves. However, behind the glossy packaging and alluring advertising lies a darker truth - the beauty industry is causing significant harm to our planet and our health.
In this short book, we will take a closer look at the impact of the beauty industry on the environment and explore the ways in which our love of cosmetics and personal care products is contributing to pollution, waste, and overuse of resources. We will also examine the potential health effects of exposure to toxins and pollutants from the beauty industry, and discuss the links between environmental degradation and public health, and so much more!It is important for individuals, companies, and governments to work together to create a more sustainable beauty industry. By making conscious choices, using sustainable and eco-friendly products, and supporting sustainable beauty businesses, we can create a greener and healthier world.

For over a decade, philosopher and energy expert Alex Epstein has predicted that any negative impacts of fossil fuel use on our climate will be outweighed by the unique benefits of fossil fuels to human flourishing—including their unrivaled ability to provide low-cost, reliable energy to billions of people around the world, especially the world’s poorest people. And contrary to what we hear from media “experts” about today’s “renewable revolution” and “climate emergency”, reality has proven Epstein right.

For decades environmentalists have told us that using fossil fuels is a self-destructive addiction that will destroy our planet. Yet by every measure of human well-being, from life expectancy to clean water to climate safety, life has been getting better and better. How can this be? The explanation is that we usually hear only one side of the story. We're taught to think only of the negatives of fossil fuels, their risks and side effects, but not their positives.

When you turn on the tap or twist the cap, you might not give a second thought to where your drinking water comes from. But how it gets from the ground to your glass is far more complex than you might think. Is it safe to drink tap water? Should you feel guilty buying bottled water? Is your water vulnerable to terrorist attacks? With springs running dry and reservoirs emptying, where is your water going to come from in the future? In Drinking Water, Duke professor James Salzman shows how drinking water highlights the most pressing issues of our time.

For decades environmentalists have told us that using fossil fuels is a self-destructive addiction that will destroy our planet. Yet by every measure of human well-being, from life expectancy to clean water to climate safety, life has been getting better and better. How can this be? The explanation is that we usually hear only one side of the story. We're taught to think only of the negatives of fossil fuels, their risks and side effects, but not their positives.

When you turn on the tap or twist the cap, you might not give a second thought to where your drinking water comes from. But how it gets from the ground to your glass is far more complex than you might think. Is it safe to drink tap water? Should you feel guilty buying bottled water? Is your water vulnerable to terrorist attacks? With springs running dry and reservoirs emptying, where is your water going to come from in the future? In Drinking Water, Duke professor James Salzman shows how drinking water highlights the most pressing issues of our time.

One out of three women alive today, and one out of two men, will face a cancer diagnosis, according to the World Health Organization. Ty Bollinger takes this personally: in the course of a decade, he says, "I lost my entire family to cancer. I don't believe I had to lose them." The Truth about Cancer has been written for one simple reason: to share the knowledge we need to protect ourselves, treat ourselves, and in some cases save our lives or the lives of those we love.

A must "Listen"
A very "easy to listen to" audio book. I am now more aware of the harmful environmental details regarding the Beauty Industry.
Very informative.
