    • Quotes

      Paul Connett: Some people, when they see the stack of an incinerator, the chimney, they think, "Oh, dilution, dispersion!" and forget that nature reconcentrates - reconcentrates in fish, particularly mercury, and reconcentrates with any grazing animal: sheep, pigs, goats, cows, um, chickens, and so we get all this back to us. And now just to finish that story, the huge problem here is that once we get dioxins into our body, we can't get rid of them. The man can't get rid of them. The woman has a way of getting rid of them; it's called having a baby. So she's getting the dioxin from her food every day; she can't get rid of it. It accumulates in her body fat, and when she's pregnant, the dioxin that she's accumulated for twenty-five years or so in her body now moves to the fetus. And so the effective concentration of that stuff is hugely increased in the fetus: potential to interfere with the baby's mental development, the baby's immune system, and the baby's sexual development. It's not a wise thing to do.

    Shocking
    Yesterday, i watched this movie in the International Documentary Film Festival at Erasms Huis Jakarta. First thing i want to say is 'Shocking'. Candida Brady provided undebatable facts how the waste effect entire world and human being. Eventough this movie is documentary, which contain lots of academic analysis about waste and its effect, but the present of Jeremy Iron give the taste of humor too in some parts. It gave the refreshment after all analysis which make your forehead crinkled . I think the message of the film easily embraced by the deliberation of the real facts. I wonder, how long this film making took time as it covers almost all parts of world, from east to west, from south to north. Just Bravo!
