I think this is one of those things that is beyond our power.....as individuals......to influence, but there is a solution; we need to get the Federal Government involved (I know there are posters from many countries, but the majority seem to be from US); I suggest as a second step, an application for a grant to study the problem; you are probably closer to your district congressman than to your senator, so start with him. THERE ARE FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR STUDIES SUCH AS THIS!!!!
