Hi Marina: Long time since I have seen you on the list. This is Marilyn Kleidon, we communicated a long time ago (2-3 years) about homebirth in Queensland etc. Anyway I am in Sydney now, but will be up in Brisbane around the 5th July would love to meet you if possible. My email address has changed and is now [EMAIL PROTECTED] I would love to hear from you. marilyn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marina Begolo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, June 07, 2002 1:52 AM Subject: Recent research diesel fumes
Hi there folks, Many weeks ago in a newspaper, there was a brief report about a research project which claimed to have found evidence that infants and young children exposed to diesel fumes (eg living next to main roads) have a higher risk and incidence of chronic respiratory diseases in adulthood. Unfortunately, there was no information about who and where the researchers are. Does anyone know of this research and where I might access it? Or even search for it? Also, I want to comment that in the five years that I have been reading this list, there has been a significant change in various areas of the birthing services in Australia. Things we talked passionatly about 5 years ago have now been implemented or addressed or are gaining wider recognition and understanding. I know that many people come to the list disappointed and disillusioned and I want to let you know that our succession of voices IS making an impact. So keep it up in the knowledge that over time we are collectively making a difference. Your passion and dedication is NOT wasted at all; the fact is that change is slow to come (but unavoidable, in the long run). Blessings, Marina "If you want to change the world, begin with changing yourself..."
