| Zusammenfassung: | The Sachdeva family is like many others. A father with a government job; his wife a homemaker; a son starting a career; and a daughter in high school. And like most other families in a big city, the Sachdevas are surrounded in their everyday lives by a cocktail of toxic substances they are hardly aware of. Following these four--and some others who come in and out of their circle of existence-- 'Our Toxic World' takes a close look at these hidden perils, and at what we can do to make our own lives, and the world around us, a little cleaner, a little safer. |

The Sachdeva family is like many others. A father with a government job; his wife a homemaker; a son starting a career; and a daughter in high school. And like most other families in a big city, the Sachdevas are surrounded in their everyday lives by a cocktail of toxic substances they are hardly aware of. Following these four--and some others who come in and out of their circle of existence-- 'Our Toxic World' takes a close look at these hidden perils, and at what we can do to make our own lives, and the world around us, a little cleaner, a little safer.
