Breast cancer linked to artificial light
Breast cancer linked to artificial light
02/07/2005 02:08 AMCory Doctorow:
When I was working on
Eastern
Standard Tribe, my editor
Patrick Nielsen
Hayden told me that he thought that the electric light was a kind
of drug, the kind of thing it takes a civilization a century to
absorb, a hundred-year-long interregnum like the industrial century
that Russian staggered through under the influence of vodka, or the
lowlanders' gin-soaked hallucinogenic century. The ability to work
when the sun was down, to ignore the seasons' rhythm that we'd been
guided by since we were photosynthesizing single-celled organisms --
it's the kind of thing that can and does drive us all mad. (
David Marusek, a brilliant sf
writer who lives in Alaska, once described whole towns of people from
away that would crop up during the summer season -- hoteliers and
waiters and loggers and gas-station attendants -- none of whom had
ever seen the midnight sun, staying awake for days on end, brawling
and hallucinating and screwing their brains out, like a Bosch
illustration).
Now there's a theory that breast cancer is related to hormone
imbalances caused by artificial lighting. Our ability to best our meat
and bend it to our will is overstated, I think -- the meat always gets
its own back.
Their theory that artificial light can cause breast cancer is simple.
Prolonged periods of exposure to artificial light disrupt the body's
circadian rhythms - the inner biological clocks honed over thousands
of years of evolution to regulate behaviors such as sleep and
wakefulness. The disruption affects levels of hormones such as
melatonin and the workings of cellular machinery, which can trigger
the onset of cancer, Stevens theorizes.
"Mankind has only been exposed to these light sources for 150 years or
so," Stevens said.
So far, the theory is based largely on suggestive, but inconclusive,
observational studies. For instance, night-shift workers such as
nurses tend to be more prone to develop breast cancer than day-shift
workers, and blind women are less likely to have breast cancer than
women with sight.

The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to
click on it daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free
mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a
minute to go to their site and click on 'fund free mammograms' (pink
window in the middle). This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate
sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate a
mammogram in exchange for advertising.
