URGENT: Advocacy Needed. Save 60 Dog's Lives

Can you help us end the dog lab at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW)? Every spring, the medical college uses 60 live dogs in a first-year physiology course. At the end of the class, the dogs are killed.

Labs like this were once common, but today more than 85 percent of U.S. medical schools have implemented humane and effective alternatives. MCW owns four state-of-the-art human patient simulators specifically designed to replace animal use for physiology teaching, so MCW president Michael Bolger could implement humane alternatives immediately.

MCW administrators are considering the use of pigs or sheep as replacements. However, this does not address the basic issue—the use of animals is cruel, unnecessary, and educationally inferior to non-animal alternatives.

Top-ranked medical schools such as Harvard, Yale, and the University of Pennsylvania have produced excellent doctors for years without the use of live animal labs in their curricula. It’s time for MCW to follow that example and save the lives of 60 animals.

Contact the Medical College of Wisconsin today. Politely ask administrators to replace live animals with humane non-animal alternatives.

"GREEN" Dry Cleaning - Safer for you and environment

Safer Dry Cleaning: Zoots, operates “green” dry cleaning stores in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern United States and which was recognized by Inc. magazine in 2006 as one of the top 50 green companies in the U.S.

Many people are unaware of possible health risks posed by dry cleaning solvents used by most dry cleaners.

ZOOTS dry cleaning process is different from the industry norm because we do not use perchloroethylene (“perc”), the primary cleaning solvent used by over 85% of dry cleaners.

The EPA has identified perc as a probable carcinogen and a hazardous air pollutant. It has been linked to many serious health problems including several types of cancer and birth defects. Many dry cleaners disguise their use of perc by using misleading words to describe their cleaning process.

Some even use terms such as chemical free, earth friendly or environmentally safe. However, these dry cleaners are often using perc, a probable carcinogen.

ZOOTS’ cleaning is healthier for you and your family and safer for the environment.

• ZOOTS uses a non-toxic, odorless cleaning process that has been thoroughly tested and proven to cause no short or long term health risks.

• Our cleaning agent is 100% biodegradable so it’s completely safe for the environment.

• Our perc-free cleaning process is gentler on your clothes and leaves them without that “dry cleaning” smell.
