Hello fellow BH'ers I need your help in getting out the word on this frightening reality you face.
I recently worked as an environmental director for a Native American Tribe in Nevada where agriculture, namely growing onions FOR WORLDWIDE SHIPPING, occurs. Now this wouldn't be a problem except Yerington is home to one of the largest unknown Superfund Sites...owned by British Petroleum in the United States.

What I need your help with is this. We are trying to shut down some ag fields that may be using contaminated water to grow onions, which you may indeed ingest. The potential contaminates of concern and well above the MCL are URANIUM, ARSENIC, RADIUM, SULFIDE but good ole FDA doesn't monitor or have limits on radioactive materials in our food. Even EPA won't help us to even study the darn problem to make sure what is being shipped out is SAFE for you and I to consume.
PLEASE PLEASE if you could BLAST THIS OUT and get it as much exposure as possible. I have posted it on a few personal websites and article directories but am afraid that this won't be enough. I find it disgusting that BIG BUSINESS and BIG GOVERNMENT can continue to put our lives and health at stake.

Thank you all I truly do appreciate it. Positive rep will follow. Oh and the company in question is Peri and Sons onions FYI so be cautious if you buy these.
