Chemical contamination is linked to disease, reproductive failure and sporadic die-offs among the world's whales, dolphins and porpoises, according to a recent report from the World Wildlife Fund. "Synthetic chemicals are the stealth bombers of the oceans - able to travel undetected across continents and drop their deadly loads on the most unsuspecting victims," said Ginette Hemley, director of International Wildlife Policy.
