Toxins & Chemicals

 
Toxins and chemicals are a huge concern in the green movement due to their detriment to the environment. Humans and animals are often exposed to these harmful substances via non-organic food (on which pesticides are used), cosmetics, plastics, aluminum and many other sources. Toxins and chemicals are thought to cause health problems, pollution and other issues. (Photo: Flickr)
