The United States Geological Survey, USGS, has conducted tests of the water quality of rivers and streams all across the nation. Not surprisingly, trace amounts of pesticides and herbicides were found in each of these bodies of water.
About half of the shallow water tables have been contaminated and the contaminants were detected in all fish. A spokesperson for Beyondpesticide claims that the US uses every year over a billion pounds of these deadly chemical compounds.
No one is currently worried about these findings because none of the compounds is found in any concentrations that pause a human safety risk. Again as expected, this was the point that was emphasized by CropLife, the association that represents all the pesticide and herbicide manufacturers. What is we find out that our original estimates of the safety standards were lax? Why can't we ever learn that there is nothing that can be thrown away, everything is connected to everything else. I imagine that these are the risks that we feel that we must take if we are to feed the 6.5 billions of us. It is a vicious circle isn't it?
I inclination not concur on it. I assume nice post. Especially the title-deed attracted me to study the whole story.
