help the furley's remove all chemicals from our home (1 Viewer)

Life expectancy has been rising dramatically for over a century now, correlated very well with the rise of modern chemistry.  Medicines are almost invariably chemicals.  So are many of the things that keep food from spoiling.  Not to mention all the materials in the devices with which you are accessing this board and reading this message in the first place.

Yes, some of them can harm you too, but the life expectancy statistics suggest the benefit is greatly outweighing the negatives.

So help me understand why so many people seem to have decided to turn back the clock on chemistry and go back to folk remedies?  Is it a misguided attempt to address overpopulation concerns?

So have rates of cancer.

 
Can't stand artificial smells and chemicals.  We don't have any in the house.  I use a combination of a plant-based cleaning solution mixed with vinegar and water for all cleaning around the house.

How have the cancer rates and cancer deaths been trending?  Not a rhetorical question.

Rates of cancer trending up as life expectancy is also going up is still a net win.

And likely results from other causes of death trending markedly down, leaving cancer as an eventual killer.

Survival rates from cancer are also trending up, btw.

God forbid one of them get stuck in a hoodie so there's only 3 in the dryer.

And don't use the blue cloth for wiping the table. That's for the baby. The green one is for the table. The yellow one is for the carpet and the pink one is for fruit. But there's multiple colors for each as well. I'll somehow hear about thinking the wrong thing when I get home tonight. Thanks a lot Dan.

My wife recently spent like $75 on some new fangled lipstick.  She hasn’t worn lipstick in the 20 years we’ve been together but this one was supposed to be different...I was shocked when she tells me she doesn’t like it.
