I doubt such a place exists because if it did I would have found it by now!!! I'm not sure you will appreciate the angle I am taking on this, but, being chemically sensitive myself here are a few thoughts. (1) if someone was looking for a community where there are no pesticides the only one I know of is in the desert with the other chemically sensitive who are living there in their trailers. See: http://www.emagazine.com/view/?1003 and http://www.beyondpesticides.org/infoservices/pesticidesandyou/Winter%2098-99/The%20Dispossessed%20(Book%20Review).pdf and http://www.theworld.com/~habib/thegarden/mcs/resources.html and http://www.talkingleaves.org/f98dispossessed.htm (2) I once read a book (sorry, can't remember the name) where they attempted to build an apartment complex where they could house the chemically sensitive safely (California somewhere) but it did not really work as everyone was so different as to their sensitivities that they could not move the project into full operation. (3) I think you are looking for a "more normal" community. Absent a whole community--I once read about a family who build a huge tree house that rambled through the trees and that worked for them. Some people move to the ocean where there are off shore breezes with minimal pollution. (4) My most successful action has been to surround myself with negative ionizers, get on an expensive alternative health program of diet and vitamins and gain full knowledge of what and what not to put in my body, live in a countrified place which does not contain the toxic air of a city, and dream of the day I may be able to buy an infra-red sauna and sweat out toxins and heavy metals that most likely play a hand in this conditon. I have had to make the best of it in this fashion while working 40 to 60 hours a week...up from a time in 1998 when I thought I had worked my last day at the office. The planet is horribly polluted. If I had a billion dollars I could afford to design and build a huge bubble that served my needs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (5) I am not sure how to pre-qualify a place to live. I once thought that Nova Scotia sounded good until I read that even the tourists could not stand all the pesticied they put on their crops. Good luck in your quest. |

An area away from farming with unused wilderness. Dont hold a candle hoping to find utopia, creating ones own will raise immune function. Rather than look outside for help, go within. Searchers are everywhere looking for answers from others. "communities of eden" by a berkley professor[cant remember name] is a good study of communes, written in the 70's. A good homeopath specialising in toxicoly may be able to remove toxins from the body, relying just on herbs like milk thistle, dandelion etc is not usually enough |
