The Meth epidemic video was an eye opener to me because I really didn’t know how much of an addiction meth had on users and especially the west coast of the U.S. Now that Meth is a nationwide drug I looked into it and found out that Indiana is one of the biggest states in the Midwest. This video showed me that meth is one of the most addictive drugs to be on because of the effects hit has on the brain and nervous system. I would definitely recommend this video being showed again in future
It is a very popular chemical and is used over one billion tons just in U.S. every year. According to the high usage it may be thought that DDT’s are completely harmless and beneficial, but when the truth is surfaced it can easily be seen that except a few positive effects, the use of pesticides has negative effects on economical, agricultural and enviromental factors. First of all, the negative affects of pesticides outweigh the positive ones. The most hazardous affect of this chemical is its damaging the balance of environment by ruining the ecosystem Once it is applied, it not only effects the products, but also the organisms that live near them or eat them.

We need to make these sugary drinks not so easy to buy. Everyday the soda companies come out with some new drink to suck us in to buying them and getting us hooked. Pepsi and coke are famous for this, but we still feel the need to try the drinks that come out. Even though most of us know that these drinks we consume are bad for us. In conclusion I believe having a tax that increases the prices on sugary drinks is a good place to start for the obesity epidemic.

Washington Post- Informed Citizenry I read “For Old Drugs, New Tricks” in the Health section of the newspaper. This article is about a safe environmental way of getting rid of old pharmaceutical drugs. At the Leesburg Pharmacy in Loudoun County, a big, round fish bowl is used to hold the old pharmaceutical drugs, then the drugs are packed in cartons by pharmacy personnel and ultimately incinerated by a commercial waste firm. I believe that this is a great idea in removing unwanted drugs, it allows people to throw away there unwanted drugs at place that will safely eradicate them without harming the environment. There are many people who throw away their unwanted drugs by flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash.
Often their clients are too poor to pay legal fees, but Schlichtmann's firm eats the legal costs itself, hoping for a rich slice of an eventual settlement. Essentially, he's gambling with the firm's money every time he accepts a case. That's why he turns down the delegation of parents who tell about the deaths of their children: He doesn't see enough money in it to justify the risk. (The movie has a hard-boiled discussion of how much various victims are "worth." A white male professional struck down in his prime gives the biggest payoff; a dead child is worth the least of all.)
While artificial sweeteners tempt the public with sugar-free sweetness, their use poses confirmed risks for serious health problems. Artificial sweeteners, also known as nonnutritive or alternative sweeteners, have been popular providers of sweetness since the 1950s. There are currently five forms of artificial sweeteners approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA): aspartame, sucralose, saccharin, acesulfame potassium, and neotame, each varying in composition and nutritional value. Artificial sweeteners are most commonly known for their use in diet sodas or flavored waters, but most can be used to replace sugar in anything. They are widely available in stores worldwide and found in packets on the tables of most restaurants.
