Pesticides are the Planets Lethal Injections

The most familar pesticices are herbicides, insecticides & fungicides.When a word containes icides, it means something will die. Pesticides are said to be free radicals & are found in the foods we eat & can be in the water we drink & the air we breathe.We are told its safe to enter a herbicide sprayed area after it dries but are never told that the chemicals abilityto kill (rated in half life)can sometimes last more than a year.

We add surfactants to our sprays (soap)to helpthe spray tokill more effectively but never realize that the soap buildup in the soil,with rains, can release & reactivate the spray. I have seen soap scum covering the water that is flowing from sprayed fields only to continue to our creeks & rivers.With an erlier rain there were Plants that died in fields that had been blanket sprayed with glyphosate & surfactant. My opinion is that the surfactant reactivated the dormant chemicals.

In medicine we are aware that the Viruses & Bacteria are mutating in response to contact with the drugs being used to kill them. I believe that in agriculture we are causing the same effect. We use our fields like giant mixing bowls. We apply massive amounts of chemicals(that plants cannot consume or utilize)& form all sorts of compounds & soil buildups that may become lethal. I sincerely believe as we apply these chemicals & Pesticides, that there are viruses, bacteria, & other micro organisms that can & will mutate into deadly strains in their fight for survival.I also believe there are some of these deadly mutated strains in the soil awaiting their contact exposure with man & animals.Medical research uncovers things frequently. We now have viruses & bacteria that rapidly consumes human flesh. Will we ever put life before wealth?
