Esse é um dos melhores vídeos que existem sobre o assunto! Pena que ainda é um assunto tão pouco difundido.
@wazroady I guess you didn't understand what I was trying to tell you (or maybe you don't want to so it's easier to blame me for everything): If we don't know what the causes for these sicknesses are we are unable to make informed decisions - there is only very little information available right now. We need to know what exactly caused all those diseases so we can act responsibly.
More than 10 years have passed and this video only have 183 comments and 110k views, from worried people who discovered the end of humanity. Its so sad, im crying, i do not wish that everyone i know of will die from cancer, i do not wish my family to have infertility, i do not wish my children to have adhd as i have and i do not wish a disfunctional kids all over the world with no cure to help these poor souls who have been victims to mass destruction and terror chemicals, i am alone on this, where i leave people barely know english, i have a feeling that this war we will loose, no human will survive it at the end of the century, i am crying.
Thoughtful presentation trying to raise concerns of chemicals being used without knowing it's consenquences; but still overall nothing new. It is and will always be hard to find out what long-term use and consumption of different chemicals means. Sometimes results on us and enviroment can be seen only after 10-20 years of massive use and production.
@KemaTheAtheist: The conclusion is that we don't really know what the effects in humans are. Generally, the populations studied are small. This raises the question if they actually represent the general population. Although this TED talk raises many questions on the validity, the fragments of evidence provided does present a compelling idea worth spreading. That is the idea of the TED talk.
He said we can't study the effects on humans so instead they analysed the amount of the chemical in men with low sperm counts. He is a scientist. Maybe you are too. I am a holistic person. I think correlations are valid of course a scientist wouldn't but before the scientific method existed we survived on seeing someone eat something, throwing up and then saying that might be poisonous. I think the answer is why put the stuff in your body. It is poison no matter what. We all know it's poison.
It also happens that most of those children start showing signs of autism at the time that autism would normally surface. In other words, it is very hard to prove that it's linked to the shots, because the autism is showing up at the same time that it normally would.
@photographer85 while I share your thoughts about most of these points, I would point out that genital defects, being quite observable, might not fit under the same category as autism and asthma.
@tvsinesperanto we can show it, and there are many documentaries out on it (look at top documentaries if you want to find some). The thing with chemicals today is that when rated, each is rated on a clean body compared to adding that one component. So take a healthy person, use shampoo, check toxins. The problem is shampoo isn't the only one with toxins, canned food is as well, along with many other items we eat. There has been no study on the combine toxin levels.
@NobodysOffTheHook That's true but we need to determine the cause of these diseases, otherwise we might blame someone or something which is not responsible and won't find a solution anyway. And you're right, we shouldn't have to diagnose an illness in our children but as it is exists we have to examine it and its causes and stop it from happening.
Greed, apathy and Narcissism is the greatest enemy to humanity. We deal with willful ignorance out of a lack of love for each other. If people would treat their fellow man( mankind) as there own self and family...every problem we face would disappear over night.
The problem with her assumptions is that she didn't account for the fact that doctors tend to diagnose more and more people with autism and asthma and trough the use of modern technology we're able to determine an illness such as leukemia much earlier in life. It's not that I disagree with the general statements made but you shouldn't just look at statistics without any further information.
And on it goes...we have to be the change because you can bet your britches governments aren't going to do it. As long as there is hope there is a solution.
@mindyjane7 "Kema TheAtheist must work for Monsanto, tell me I'm wrong Kema." Actually, I have a Master's degree from Johns Hopkins specializing in bioinformatics and I'm in the middle of a 2nd Master's in biotechnology. I specifically studied systems biology, Modeling and Simulation of complex biological systems, and drug discovery and development. I'm well aware of the potential effects of chemicals. Somehow I doubt you know more than me on this topic.
@rg055 "Do you think that BPA should be banned in baby bottles" No, because at that concentration it doesn't matter. "Do you think it's a problem, or not a problem that 95 per cent of adults tested had BPA present in their urine." The first question is "In what concentrations?" Second, "How fast does the body metabolize BPA? Third, "Does it even use it at all?" Fourth, "If 95% of men have BPA in their urine, at what concentration does it actually cause the issues stated?" cont...
@KemaTheAtheist The arguments put forwared are I guess mere suggestions what aspects to look at. Pure scientifically I guess the extraoridinary links made to find a causal relationship could have been presented more critically. I guess in a way she and he were trying their best to make a story that a diverse range of viewers could grasp. Fortunately there is a KemaTheAtheist to put the record straight.
@KemaTheAtheist Yeah I understand that you think that using the word "dosing" was overzealous. I agree with you, but what was your underlying point. Do you think that BPA should be banned in baby bottles, or not. It's seems like to me a fairly common sense solution to me. Do you think it's a problem, or not a problem that 95 per cent of adults tested had BPA present in their urine.
@Shanawolfo1 he talks about it at 8:30 when he talks on the mass extinction. Just like the dinosaurs, not everything died off, some evolved. The problem is the change is happening faster than we can evolve.
So you see nothing wrong with the fox overseeing the hen house or a fox with chicken feathers sticking out of its fecal matter, saying..."nothing to see here." ?
I also would love to know the answer to this question. I've been using water filters for a long time now but they are also plastic and now am wondering if my PLASTIC water filer is pointless now because even though it's filtering the water, it's still plastic and the water just sits in a plastic container after filtration.
cont 2... Fifth question, "Does the chemical react the same way in humans as it does in amphibians?" There is so much missing here, there is absolutely no reason to look at it anything more than fear mongering, especially with that little fetus video, "Help me!" All the papers I looked at described these things as negligible. The only bad links that seem to be being made here are by the speakers.
cont 2... I actually looked up the study: From this study: Comparison of migration from polyethersulphone and polycarbonate baby bottles. Simoneau C, et. al Only 8 of 40 bottles released any measurable amounts of BPA, most were about ~1µg/kg with the worst being 1.83µg/kg. The regulatory limit is 600µg/kg. If you understand how small 1µg/kg is, then you understand why it's absurd she refers to it as "dosing our children."
@eggiliciousness Theyre examining trends and providing well supported evidence you dont need to rely on their authority when they have scientific tests .
@GrowTheTruth do you mean as in organic carbon,hydrogen,nitrogen and oxygen based compounds? what about if a naturally occurring compound is made synthetically,is that ok to use?
@leconfidant can you please link the study that proved it? Last I heard (about 2 years ago), they had no idea. They thought it was DNA but they found very strong evidence that it wasn't, as they have found in families with 5 children, the 5th child is 4 times more likely to be homosexual than the first child. If it was DNA, we wouldn't see such a huge difference between which child is in line.
@rg055 "What's your point?" Did you catch that part of my comment about understanding how small of an amount that is? Referring to that as "dosing" your kid is absurd fear mongering because that amount can't have a significant effect. 1µg/kg = .001 milligram Do you understand how small an amount that is? Do you really think that qualifies as "dosing" your child? Come on...
@wevenhuis "But are you implying that there are no truths in some of the arguments?" No. What I'm implying is exactly what I said. What they have given as evidence does not support their supposed conclusions and implied links to human physiology. If they had instead stated, "We're not sure yet what all of this might cause, but it is something we should encourage more research in" I would have been fine with the talk (minus the purely fear mongering crap like the "help me" fetus).
Kema, be your own consultant. Don't ask others for their opinions. Listen to the lecture. Listen to the universe. Have you ever said to yourself, I think if I used this natural remedy then it would fix this and you did and it did? I have and the more you do it, the more it will happen. Seek out information and it will come to you more and more. There will always be people who are a brick wall of resistance. Go down your own path. There IS a knowledge base out there. Go and confidently pursue it.
@wazroady You need to look at the factual cause of the baby's death, otherwise we won't know for certain what caused it and we might blame something which isn't responsible after all! The right amount of information would be: "the increase of autism can be directly linked to these chemicals because the chemical XYZ reacts with the brain of the infant and can be found in each and every child with autism". If we don't look for the actual cause we won't be able to prevent it in the future
@KemaTheAtheist: I am noticing that your are very involved in the reactions. I understand the arguement to perhaps put the record strait and look at things in a logical objective manner. I agree that this talk is far from the academic level of evidence based research. But are you implying that there are no truths in some of the arguments?
@tvsinesperanto WHeli it is true that there is no confirmed link between BPA and desease in Humans the facts are sugestive. BPA is hormone active, it does cause deformation in reptiles and mice, our current waste water treatment does not remove it (there is much work done to get that fixed) and we do not know what longtime exposure will do, even if it's very small amounts. Her presentation is bad and I had to force my self to watch it but there is science behind it.
@lsynno its not well supported and im not asking for authority, im asking for someone with a competent knowledge of the HUMAN metabolic system.i work in drug design and if i presented evidence like that for my drug i would be laughed out of the room. the human metabolic process is wildly different to amphibians which are extremely sensitive to hormones due to their unique reproductive systems. This is nothing more than idle food for thought dressed up as sensationalist scaremongering
@leconfidant "But his own qualifications seem at least adequate." I never said they weren't, but his data set doesn't justify his conclusions. "Did you watch the 'Silent Spring to Silent Night' tube?" No. I looked up actual papers and studies: the APVMA responded to Hayes' 2010 published paper... by stating that his findings "do not provide sufficient evidence to justify a reconsideration of current regulations which are based on a very extensive dataset."
This is an important message, and it alludes to some corruption and stupid practices of the human race... but at the same time a little bit too much fear mongering
Its odd that while this man is exposing this issue, he is wearing female jewelry and on another thumbnail I saw him with pink nail polish. Yet he is married with children. Very odd.
Of course the statistic incidence of childhood diseases increase - we have better diagnostic tools today, thus more cases are discovered. That doesn't make the actual incidence is increasing, just that we're better at detecting them.
@tvsinesperanto Do some research on glutathione, most powerful antioxidant in the body, and what health conditions correlate with low glutathione levels. Visualize, conceptualize, how a person exposed to more and more chemicals, toxins, every year would be predisposed to developing a vast array of medical and mental illness and SOONER, EARLIER in life than previous generations. Just think about it. Just consider it, objectively, as you suggest, then do some more of that research.
omg, I can't believe he just did that (slides at 15:20), you show one research linking low sperm count and the chem', than you show two more slides of ppl with more of that chem, where's the study to measure the sperm count on on those applicators? show that it's not just a one case thing, but a trend.
People always felt superior to the animals acting like their needs come first ignoring the entire food web and bioaccumulation. I say let it happen until they feel they're in the same boat. Maybe then people will value native Americans sustainability and love of the land.
@@reymunflores This comment is like 2 years ago where did you found it? It's pretty gay to find a guy wearing big earings like that. Everytime I see a man wearing big earrings like that i presume he's gay.
@photographer85 Yep, in the absence of your points, her talk is pretty much just alarmist. Overall, people are getting healthier, and technology, warts and all, is responsible.
cont 2... Once he showed that the problems were mainly caused by the entire mix of everything, his case specifically against Atrazine can't be upheld because he can't single that out among all the other chemicals, and he didn't show a control of just all the other chemicals to compare it to. It merits more study for sure, but it does not merit the fear mongering tactics the woman uses.
@photographer85 I concur completely. I understand how statistics [don't] work in our monkey brains (our brains aren't designed to handle numbers larger than roughly 9 average; our short-term (RAM) memory has less storage than a Commodore64), and I understand how we fall into these statistical illusions all the time. It doesn't however excuse bringing such logical fallacies to TED; the generally pragmatic skeptics here will call "bullshit" on it every time ^.^
@GrowTheTruth as in the products that hurt the earth by wasting arable land and using 'natural' pest control methods which are much less efficient and require copious amounts of energy to produce and use?
@leconfidant "My major was economics. I'm an amateur scientist. But I watched the guy's video and he's highly qualified." This is not nearly enough to make an educated determination of the subject. "Many of the comments here are rubbishing the presentation as unproven." Because it's not, and there's studies directly contrary to some of their claims.
@wevenhuis "I guess in a way she and he were trying their best to make a story that a diverse range of viewers could grasp." If the story that is grasped is a misrepresentation of science, then the story shouldn't be told in the first place. I actually even watched Hayes' full presentation, and he made a compelling case against Atrazine and how it is linked to everything he saw, right up until it needed to be mixed with all sorts of other stuff to really cause a problem. cont...
@wazroady Well if you direct a comment towards me, I have to assume you're talking/writing to me. :) A pear reviewed article might really come in handy when my apple refuses to review it! Realy, I'm super cereal!
@wevenhuis "The conclusion is that we don't really know what the effects in humans are." For some of them we do and they're directly contrary to what they're saying here. "...the fragments of evidence provided does present a compelling idea worth spreading." No, it really doesn't because their conclusion isn't proven. This is how bullshit ideas end up getting spread like with Andrew Wakefield and Judy Mikovitz.
whoa! i met Dr. Hayes in Minneapolis last year! incredible, i am glad his message is getting more of an audience under TED.
I always used glass bottles for my baby. Never trusted using plastic with anything hot.

if Trump wants to 'serve the people' he should ban chemical farming and find out how we could all go back to natural organic farming and promote it.
Yes,i agree. But sadly these chemicals do not break down easily.. Atrazine is a good example

omg, I can't believe he just did that (slides at 15:20), you show one research linking low sperm count and the chem', than you show two more slides of ppl with more of that chem, where's the study to measure the sperm count on on those applicators? show that it's not just a one case thing, but a trend.
People always felt superior to the animals acting like their needs come first ignoring the entire food web and bioaccumulation. I say let it happen until they feel they're in the same boat. Maybe then people will value native Americans sustainability and love of the land.
Instead of referring to them as barbarians and disregarding everything they know now we are the ones starting to look backwards....
Wait if he has a wife then why is he wearing earings?
Henry It’s called swag.
@@reymunflores This comment is like 2 years ago where did you found it? It's pretty gay to find a guy wearing big earings like that. Everytime I see a man wearing big earrings like that i presume he's gay.
Henry Maybe you are the gay one brother. I will be praying for you 🙏
@@reymunflores What did I said that makes you think that? Just saying earings like that are for ladies. What world do you live in my friend?
I don't know about you, but doesn't this seem like it could be the start of X-men?
@geragna ...watch the video...
Scare tactics: the presentation.
@photographer85 Yep, in the absence of your points, her talk is pretty much just alarmist. Overall, people are getting healthier, and technology, warts and all, is responsible.
People are getting healthier? Wow no grasp of reality there.
@St00sh13 not only that, a generation ago, population was lesser. And i'd bet that 20% was not corrected for population growth

Once he showed that the problems were mainly caused by the entire mix of everything, his case specifically against Atrazine can't be upheld because he can't single that out among all the other chemicals, and he didn't show a control of just all the other chemicals to compare it to.
It merits more study for sure, but it does not merit the fear mongering tactics the woman uses.
@photographer85 I concur completely.
I understand how statistics [don't] work in our monkey brains (our brains aren't designed to handle numbers larger than roughly 9 average; our short-term (RAM) memory has less storage than a Commodore64), and I understand how we fall into these statistical illusions all the time. It doesn't however excuse bringing such logical fallacies to TED; the generally pragmatic skeptics here will call "bullshit" on it every time ^.^
@GrowTheTruth as in the products that hurt the earth by wasting arable land and using 'natural' pest control methods which are much less efficient and require copious amounts of energy to produce and use?
@leconfidant
"My major was economics. I'm an amateur scientist. But I watched the guy's video and he's highly qualified."
This is not nearly enough to make an educated determination of the subject.
"Many of the comments here are rubbishing the presentation as unproven."
Because it's not, and there's studies directly contrary to some of their claims.
@ukenovice That's not evolution at all.
Most of her videos were so awkward and without information.
@wevenhuis
"I guess in a way she and he were trying their best to make a story that a diverse range of viewers could grasp."
If the story that is grasped is a misrepresentation of science, then the story shouldn't be told in the first place. I actually even watched Hayes' full presentation, and he made a compelling case against Atrazine and how it is linked to everything he saw, right up until it needed to be mixed with all sorts of other stuff to really cause a problem.

@GrowTheTruth you know nothing about the subject obviously
@geragna ...*sigh*...its a joke...perhaps this is not the joke you are looking for...*does Jedi mind wave*...
@SEThatered ironic post, then
@wazroady Well if you direct a comment towards me, I have to assume you're talking/writing to me. :)
A pear reviewed article might really come in handy when my apple refuses to review it!
Realy, I'm super cereal!

@skeletonmom Why are they male?
I don't think she should be talking about this stuff. She needs to do her homework....
I figured I might push these long comments a little down with a meaningless comment.
Oh hey, nice belly!
I guess it affects humans too.... But to what extent we would not know as experimenting on humans is not allowed! XD cheers!
Fear Mongering, unproven links, and jumping from theme to theme. Those first 3 minutes discredited any arguments she might be trying to make...
PROFESSOR HAYES! GO BEARS!
Sources for information:
CDC and Other state institutions. Great credibility guys!
*closes window*
@wevenhuis
"The conclusion is that we don't really know what the effects in humans are."
For some of them we do and they're directly contrary to what they're saying here.
"...the fragments of evidence provided does present a compelling idea worth spreading."
No, it really doesn't because their conclusion isn't proven. This is how bullshit ideas end up getting spread like with Andrew Wakefield and Judy Mikovitz.
@maxjosephwheeler
Wow, fantastic and very disturbing. Money needs to leave american politics.
breast feed damnit.
@photographer85 Just what I was thinking.
