[…]in state emergency funds for Zika preparedness. MCS, whose services include monitoring and aerial spraying, may still benefit from Florida government funds- we just don’t know because they haven’t responded to requests for comment. We do know that the company is not a registered state vendor. But that is really the tip of this disgusting iceberg. From the article: “Ann Scott’s large stake in MCS is via G. Scott Capital Partners, an investment firm that boasts $291 million of client assets. The firm manages several private equity funds and various “family accounts primarily comprised of trusts and family entities,” according […]

And now we find out that a pipeline just got approval and will begin tomorrow!? This new pipeline will run, “through conservation areas, under rivers, near springs, and sinkhole-vulnerable karst geological areas”, reports The Gainesville Sun. More specifically, in north central Florida, the pipeline will go under the Suwannee and Lower Santa Fe Rivers and go through dozens of springsheds, including near Rainbow Springs. It will also travel through wooded conservation lands and karst geology […]

IPM focuses on prevention so that pesticides become a last resort. It’s low-cost, safe, and environmentally friendly.

The UK is afraid that the Aedes mosquito, which carries Zika, will spread throughout out the continent and then infect women, thereby giving their unborn children microcephaly, something that STILL has not been proven. Zika has been around for many years and until now has never caused the condition. From the article: “Planes arriving in the UK from […]

PREDICTED HERBICIDE USE TO 2025 (MORTENSEN ET AL 2012) That is because, unlike Roundup, neither 2,4-D nor Dicamba are broad-spectrum herbicides. They will have to be sprayed together with Roundup, or with each other (or all of them together) to kill all weeds. This vital fact has not been widely appreciated. Confirmation comes from the companies themselves. Monsanto is stacking (i.e. […]

Bayer, which acquired Monsanto in June 2018, told PEOPLE in a statement Thursday that science does not back up claims that glyphosate can cause cancer. “We have great sympathy for any individual with cancer, but the extensive body of science on glyphosate-based herbicides over four decades supports the conclusion that Roundup does not cause NHL,” the company said.

Researchers in Florida are working to limit the mosquito population by installing more bat boxes (a brown bat can eat up to approximately 1,200 insects per hour- including moths, gnats, crickets, beetles, locusts, mosquitoes, fruit flies and other bugs). From the article: “Bats help control populations of infectious, night-flying species that affect humans and animals. They also help limit agricultural pests. They are known to eat 80 different insects, 30 of which are harmful to humans and animals. Thirteen of these insects carry pathogens like heart warms and West Nile virus.” However, Brian Pope, director at Lubee Bat Conservatory, says […]

[…]April, the European Parliament called for a ban on all private uses of glyphosate, as well as spraying around public parks and playgrounds. It also opposed glyphosate spraying just ahead of harvesting, and called for the immediate disclosure of all scientific evidence used by the European Food Safety Authority to back up its claim that glyphosate is unlikely to cause harm. The Commission had twice failed earlier in 2016 to garner enough support from EU governments for a long-term re-approval of glyphosate, before suggesting the temporary re-approval. *Article originally appeared at Sustainable […]

Deutsche Bahn, Germany’s state owned rail operator, is the country’s largest user of the toxic weedkiller glyphosate. Earlier this month, in a move that is great news, they announced they will STOP USING GLYPHOSATE and look instead for environmentally friendly alternative such as UV lights, hot water or electric shock. Deutsche Bahn typically purchases around 65 tons of the herbicide annually. Classified as most likely carcinogenic by the World Health Organization, Germany’s Environmental Minister Svenja Schulze was pleased upon hearing the news, telling WirtschaftsWoche: “Glyphosate kills insects which is why we are going to ban it in Germany.“1 RELATED STORY: […]

Countless people will die by 2100 just from the heat alone. There are still an abundance of people that deny that climate change exists, the United States president being one of them, and yet there is overwhelming evidence that not only suggests otherwise but warns of the impending doom humans will soon face. One such piece of evidence was recently put into interactive map form by Climate Central, an independent organization made up of scientists and journalists researching about climate change and its impact on the public.

Kellogg confirmed on Monday that the company has set a goal of phasing out the controversial weedkiller glyphosate from its oat and wheat supply chain by 2025. Kellogg, the maker of “Corn Flakes” cereal, Pop-Tarts, Eggo waffles, and other breakfast products, does not own or operate farms. Still, many of its suppliers have used the herbicide as a “drying agent a few weeks before harvest, particularly with wheat and oats,” the company said on its website. The company said: “Although this practice is not widespread in our wheat and oat supply chains, we are working with our suppliers to phase […]

California will soon battle over whether to list acetaminophen, one of the world’s most common over-the-counter drugs, as a carcinogen, mimicking other recent high-profile disputes over things like coffee and alcohol. Outside the U.S., acetaminophen is known as paracetamol and is used to treat pain and fevers. It has been available in the U.S. without a prescription since 1955. It is the foundation for more than 600 prescription and over-the-counter medications for adults and children found in popular brands like Theraflu, Excedrin, Sudafed, Robitussin, and Tylenol.
