Global Warming and Food Allergies
It seems any and all of our problems can be traced back to... Global Warming! Are you serious??! Apparently, allergy specialist Johannes Ring from the Munich Technical University is quite serious. He told a press conference that allergies today affected every third European. Ring said. "Most allergies start with skin problems, even food allergies."
His theory is that pollen-spreading trees bloom longer now due to climate change, adding to the number of allergies. Also, the number of foreign plants moving into Europe are causing new allergies.
Maybe I'm being a bit of a cynic but does this little blip of a story have anything to do with Earth Times creating some relevance during Food Allergy Week? Okay, maybe that's a bit of a stretch too.
Yet another reason to stop driving your cars and for goodness sake, if you're moving to a different country, just leave the plants behind. :)
