Is chemical exposure the missing link factor in breast cancer? Mounting evidence points to exposure to environmental contaminants as a major concern in relation to rising cases of breast cancer. WECF, as the women's organisation on health and the environment, calls on the EU for a strategy on the primary prevention of breast cancer.
In this publication, written by Helen Lynn, WECF focusses on the current epidemic of breast cancer which cripples health budgets all over the EU and links it with chemical exposure. What if this epidemic was preventable?
"WECF promotes ideas of women for a grandchild-friendly environment."
