Autism Linked to Environmental FactorsRogueSquid says: &#8220;Autism affects more people now, than ever before, even more than cancer and diabetes. Everyday chemicals in our homes, our yards, our food, and the air we breathe may be triggering abnormal brain development. Do you or someone you know have Autism? Check out the chemicals you use indoors and outdoors, maybe it is time to switch to organic/biodegradable household cleaners and lawn care. There are so MANY chemicals out there today, not all of them have been tested or at least tested the way they should. So many of the chemicals are new and have no had a history to see the side effects.&#8221;

Ocean Conservancy What does 10 million pounds of trash look like? Take your pick: 41 blue whales or 10 Boeing 747 jumbo jets. That’s roughly the weight of trash collected by volunteers during our Cleanup. Check out the top 10 items we found: http://ocean.ly/13pUtRP RogueSquid says: &#8220;Be sure to pick up your trash this summer! Or try to eliminate it all together when you go to the beach, by using reusable Tupperware or something similar. Bring fresh fruits, instead of bagged or boxed items.&#8221;
