Finding A Cure

In my mind, "the cure" is not prevention. If we effectively prevent cancer, we don't need the cure. If we were serious about preventing cancer, making integrity, health and planetary health the priorities that guided our consumer and lifestyle decisions, then we might not be swimming in carcinogens, and there might be a whole lot less cancer out there to cure.

I also don't consider healthier alternatives as "turning back" from and find "progress" to be a very subjective term. So long as clinging to our technological conveniences is priority and reconsidering or abandoning them is viewed as regressive, our Planet's existence (as our's) is definitely in question. I guess we'll just focus on growing new body parts in test tubes then to replace the one's destroyed by cancer. Hopefully they grow our parts in the right types of plastic tubes.

I'd be curious to hear more about how breast cancer prevention could yield profits. I know breast cancer is hugely profitable. Is it that prevention needs to compete with disease and death in the marketplace? Sad thoughts...
