Fluoride Awareness
Week
The
Fluoride Action Network has teamed up with Dr. Joseph Mercola
and Mercola.com to bring
you our 7th Annual Fluoride Awareness Week (June 11-18). Dr. Mercola
has been featuring articles on his website and social media sites discussing the
risks associated with fluoride and the need for ending artificial water
fluoridation worldwide, and will continue to do so through Sunday, June
18th.
Mercola
kicked off Awareness week with an article, Movement
to Remove Fluoride From Water Supplies
Continues, featuring several new videos, including
an interview with FAN’s interim Director, Bill Osmunson, DDS, as well as a short
awareness week promo featuring Dr. Mercola, and a presentation by Paul Connett,
PhD, on FAN’s petition to the EPA.
On June
13th, Mercola published, Unprecedented Lawsuit Could End Water
Fluoridation in US Based on Neurotoxicity
Studies, in which I featured our lawsuit with
the EPA, the petition that triggered it, the latest information regarding
fluoride neurotoxicity research, and proof that our movement is making
significant progress.
This weekend, Mercola.com will feature the film “Our Daily Dose,” in a third article, and will continue to share numerous posts and archived articles on fluoride and fluoridation on their Facebook and Twitter pages. You can also follow the action on FAN's Facebook and Twitter pages.
The Mercola team has developed two infographics with the help of FAN that we urge you to share on social media and with people new to the issue:
Mercola Makes Donation Pledge
Dr.
Mercola made the following statement at the launch of awareness
week:
This
is the week we can get FAN the funding it deserves. I have found very few NGOs
as effective and efficient as FAN. Its team has led the charge to end
fluoridation and will continue to do so with our help! So I am stepping up the
challenge. I'm proud to announce for the seventh year in a row now, a portion of
sales up to 25,000 will be donated to Fluoride Action Network. Please make a
donation today to help FAN end the absurdity of
fluoridation.
To this
end, Mercola has launched a promotional deal for his online
store. He will
donate proceeds from his sales during awareness week—up to $25,000--to FAN. He
is also urging supporters to donate directly to FAN to maximize the impact of
your contribution.
If you
support FAN's ongoing work to raise public awareness about the hazards of
fluoride and end fluoridation, please consider making a tax-deductible
contribution this week. We’d like to set a mini-fundraising goal of $10,000 by
midnight on Sunday, June 18th. Will you help us reach this
goal?

issue.

fluoridation-lobby by voting down their proposal to add fluoride chemicals to
the public drinking water of the town’s 5,000 residents. Leaders cited "personal
choice" as a reason for their decision.
Hichinbrook Shire,
Australia – The
community in North Queensland has ended fluoridation for its 12,500+ residents
after a 4-3 vote by the Shire Council, joining a growing list of communities in
the region rejecting the practice. Taxpayers were being billed

2013 to add the hazardous waste to the water supply.
Middletown, Maryland -- After considerable discussion and
deliberation, and with input from town residents, the Burgess and Commissioners
voted to end fluoridation for its 5,000 residents. According to the meeting
minutes, water treatment operators showed commissioners photos of calcium
carbonate build-up problems in the reservoir water pipes. Operators said, “This
calcification issue represents significant work and expense that is directly
related to the injection of fluoride. The
Water Fluoridation Manual from AWWA and several other Water Treatment
Professional’s support our findings.” Photos on

This new video on sugar is just a portion of the longer
interview with Conscience Media in Bedford, England
entitled, The Fluoride Deception: Interview with
Professor Paul Connett.
While in the U.K., Paul met with members of
the UK Freedom From Fluoride
Alliance in Bedford, considered by locals to be the heart of the UK's battleground against water fluoridation. Though
fluoridated in 1970, residents of Bedford have successfully campaigned to keep
fluoride chemicals out of their drinking water for the past seven years, and
will remain vigilant to keep it out. During their meeting in April,
an 11-minute campaign
video was filmed, featuring Paul Connett, with a global call to action in
the fight against artificial water fluoridation.
