    I hate how every time we come up with a new “miracle” chemical that solves really big issues it ends up being either carcinogenic or devastatingly harmful to the environment.

    It’s like how we almost made bed bugs extinct in America but the chemical being used was causing cancer and birth defects.

    Why can’t we have nice chemical things!?!?

      H2O is a pretty nice chemical, that makes people drinking it less thristy, and is good for plants and animals as well. Just be careful that you don’t have too much of it, and you are good.
