In that way, we will be leaving the world a better place for our children's children. I think cancer treatment is also very important. In the case of childhood cancer, treatment is a real success story in many respects. But, as everyone knows who has been through this in any way, the treatments are arduous, scary and have huge side effects and risks. Kids shouldn't have to go through this if there's anything we can do to prevent it.
Personal efforts are great.
However, there's no way to live in a glass bubble, or to isolate yourself and your child from all risks. For that reason, it helps to take some community action, or to support organizations that are active at changing public policy. Well, our time is about up. Right now we're focusing lots of work on pesticides and diesel exhaust health risks to children. I think we're making great progress and that lots of people are increasingly interested in this issue.
