Кинорежиссёр Пенелопа Джегссэр Чаффер заинтересовалась химикатами, которые воздействовали на неё во время беременности: могли ли они нанести вред её будущему ребёнку? Поэтому она обратилась к учёному Тирону Хэйсу, который занимался изучением атразина, гербицида, используемого при выращивании кукурузы. Хэйс, специалист по амфибиям, является противником атразина, так как его воздействие вызывает странности в развитии лягушек. Чаффер и Хэйс вместе рассказывают свою историю на сцене TEDWomen.
