In Europe every year 100,000 children die of diseases caused by the environment. In Europe 70% of cancers are linked to the environment : 30% to pollution and 40% to food.
In Europe cases of cancer in children have been increasing by 1.1% yearly for 30 years. In France the number of cancers in males has increased by 93% in 25 years. In a little French community at the foot of the Cevennes Mountains, the mayor has decided to take a stance by making the school canteen organic. Here as everywhere, people are confronted with the anxiety of the dangers of industrial and agro-chemical pollution. It is the start of a fight against a process that could become irreversible, a fight to stop our children accusing us in the future.
