Summer Skin Safety and Marvelous Mess Party!!!!

I just wanted to remind all of you of the dangers of too much sun this summer.....

Don't forget, stay covered up, especially during the hottest hours of the day. Use sunscreen (not chemical!!! Use a titanium dioxide brand) and dress in UV protective clothing. You can burn even on a cloudy day. 

Skin cancer is a disease that mostly effects young people.

Don't use tanning booths.

Don't try to bronze yourself outside.

Check your body once a month and keep track of what your moles look like, if you notice any changes GO TO YOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. 

Here are some images from the David Cornfield Melanoma Fund:

On the site they also have blank body charts that you can fill out to keep track:

Checking could *save your life*. Take the time and just do it!! Please be safe this summer and especially keep your children from sunburning!!!!!

Now, my favorite post from last week was.....

Farm to Fork and Repeal the Monsanto Protection Act!!!!!

This infographic is so full of some incredibly important information about how we get our food and what is *in it*. Please take the time to read and share. Also, I'd love it if you'd consider signing this petition to repeal the Protect Monsanto act that was so underhandedly snuck by the general public and put into law:

Repeal Monsanto Protection ACT!!!

The Monsanto Protection Act allows agri-businesses like Monsanto to sell genetically modified franken-seeds *even when federal courts have blocked them from doing so*. Please. Sign the Petition!!!!!
