Pollution Makes You Fat

I swear I didn't make this up.  Check out Bruce Blumberg, professor at UC Irvine,  whose studies of pollution with laboratory animals discovered, much to his surprise,  that some of the particles were kicking the endocrine system into a fat producing frenzy.   The concept of "obesogens" isn't really as fantastic as it might seem at first blush.  We already know that chemicals in the environment affect reproduction and development,  also endorcinologically connected functions.

This is it!  This is the way the world ends...the last human on Earth will be a 350 pound anorexic who's  still gaining weight and suffocates after falling down and not being able to breath.  Yuck.   Mother Earth has her ways.
