Read the book "Silent Spring" by Rachel Carson? (at your public/ school library)

Heard the phrase "Canary in a coal mine"?

Read that article about the frogs dying out?
EXTINCTION CRISIS FOR AMPHIBIANS / Frogs, toads and other species dying off -- new fungus magnifies environmental problems (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2006/07/07/MNG0LJRC9U1.DTL)

Wondered about if "Big Pharma's" drugs pose a threat to wildlife -what are they doing to US?
Drug traces found in water pose problem for wildlife (http://www.infowars.com/articles/science/drug_traces_found_in_water_pose_problem_wildlife.h tm)

Birds and amphibians are very easily poisoned by pollutants. They are our "early warning system". Wake up! - Granny:hippy:

I guess I should be worried about my wife Birdgirl, then, too.

Seriously, that's a scary article. I've read about the frogs before and knew they were barometers of our environment. Makes sense that birds are, too.
