Better Living

The differences in environmental contaminants between our two countries are striking. In Belarus, better living through chemicals is not a lifestyle option. The economic crisis in the country is so devastating that most people can barely meet basic survival needs. Pesticides are not in heavy use, if used at all. New clothes are not affordable, let alone new carpeting. The use of preservatives, growth hormones and antibiotics in the production of food is almost unheard of. The majority of people don t own cars. On the other hand, in Belarus there are less restrictions on industrial pollution, there are no requirements for disclosure of ingredients in food and other products, and the food, air and water are contaminated by radiation pollution that will affect human health in untold ways for millenniums.
