Cancer percolation theory: toxic contamination of ground water beds

Cancer is the new pandemic on earth although its being a non-communicable disease. The major cause for it is the toxic contamination of environment especially the ground water with known carcinogenic agents like insecticides, pesticides, phthalates, fertilizer residues etc used extensively in intensive farming models preached under green revolution and also by the poisonous outputs by chemical industry. These contaminants percolate down to ground water strata by various means. The toxic contamination of ground water this way has resulted in health emergencies in areas around chemical industries, tanneries, sewage disposal pits, sugar, ethanol and paper industries etc where such contaminated waste water collects in large quantities in the shape of toxic ponds, lakes or marshes etc. Medical consequences of such fallouts are just too obvious. Lots of news in press and media all around the world is reported on this matter especially in developing countries where there is scant concern for health of people by governments concerned. The methodology is still getting promoted to a new scale with the installation of numerous biogas plants which have all the known side affects and harmful content. The ground water once contaminated with these percolated chemicals causes diseases like cancer, reproductive inefficiency and internal organs malfunctioning in people who happen to depend on this water for drinking purposes and also use it for irrigation and livestock needs. These chemicals are often bio-non-degradable and interfere in hormonal pathways and disturb the genetic behavior of organisms especially humans and have become a real big health threat. Various fallouts are discussed in this write up.
