Today on The Environment Report... You might want to drop that extra piece of bacon (researchers studying this stuff are). Rebecca Williams looks into new research that found a strong link between some food preservatives and a higher risk of death from Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and diabetes. Also... we cover President Obama's stop in Michigan. He announced many auto jobs are gone for good, but green jobs are on the way. And... the fifth stomach on the farm. Todd Melby looks at ways to turn cow manure into energy. The government makes big investments in methane digesters, but does it pay off?
