Whether you know it or not, you're
surrounded by cancer every day.
It could be in the form of a friend or
family member battling it, a non-profit asking for donations to cure
it, or one of the many carcinogens that cause it. The Idiot Cycle is an
exposé of sorts that focuses heavily on the companies that are doing
their part in causing it and pulls the curtain back on how corrupt and
powerful they really are.
It's not the best approach at getting the
message across but, like the documentary Food, Inc., The Idiot Cycle is
an eye-opening experience that will make you want to learn more and get
involved.
The film gives some tips on how to stop the cycle.
These include things like not donating or supporting non-profit
organizations sponsored or operated by companies who produce
cancer-causing chemicals, consuming less, supporting local organic
farmers, riding your bike instead of driving, and making your home
non-toxic. Some of these are obvious choices but all are valid in helping stop cancer.
You can find more information and links on The Idiot Cycle's official website.
The Idiot Cycle plays at the Royal Cinema (608 College St. W) on Saturday, November 14 at 6:30 p.m.
