The industry-controlled EPA promised to release its dioxin hazard reassessment report, but blew its own deadline – again. Amazingly, the
original dioxin toxicity report was due out in 1985. Dioxin is extremely toxic and can cause cancer, birth defects, liver damage and many other
harmful effects.
Monsanto and Dow Chemical were the top 2 dioxin producers, a byproduct of the herbicide 2,4,5-T; 300 million pounds of their dioxin-laden herbicide
pollutes 400 million acres across the United States. Herbicide 2,4,5-T is half the recipe for Agent Orange; the poison was phased out by the late
1970′s.
Dioxin released in the air increased 10% from 2009-2010. Of course Dow Chemical is currently the #2 producer of dioxin in the US.
Dow Chemical has spent $12 million lobbying the EPA since the EPA announced its intent to reassess dioxin. On the flip side, American taxpayers
bankrolled the EPA for over $10 billion in 2010 alone.
Corporate industries stand to lose everything if the word about dioxin gets out, including manufacturers who use chlorine in products like paper, weed
killers, and plastic manufacturers. The biggest source of dioxin absorption in humans is meat, dairy and eggs. Industrial agriculture has also
lobbied hard to stop the release of the EPA report to cover up the danger lurking in food.

The original toxicity report was supposed to come out in
1985
26 years later and still a 'delayed toxicity report'
Who produces Dioxin......
The two biggest....Monsanto and Dow Chemical

Dioxin polluters would go out of business if people understood how dangerous it was and stopped using bleached products, chlorine, weed killers, and
caustic plastic.
Almost every man, woman and child in the US has measurable dioxin levels in their bodies.
The US government continues to protect polluters like Monsanto and Dow Chemical for the horrors that they have caused. If the EPA’s dioxin
report is ever released and criminal polluters were prosecuted and subsequently had to pay for human health and environmental damage, they would go
bankrupt.
Well isn't that just dandy another case of our government protecting corporations and making sure money keeps flowing while the public eats toxic
meat, dairy and eggs.
