[…]equine encephalitis virus). They then compared those rates in 16 different zip codes where the spraying doesn’t happen. For kids living in zip codes where spraying happened each summer, there was about a 25% higher risk of an autism diagnosis or developmental problem, compared to kids who lived where no spraying was done. It seems that the way pesticides are applied might have something to do with the correlation; there are animal studies which show that pesticides can affect certain neurotransmitters in the brain, however, their exact effects on brain development are still being studied. From the TIME article: “The study […]

Clay County, Florida- Clay County cited the nearly 1,000 percent increase in mosquitos, since Hurricane Irma, as their reason to start aerial spraying with naled. However, thanks to all our many friends who let the county know exactly how they felt, it seems we’ve been able to get them to back down: “Based on feedback we have received from the public, Clay County will NOT move forward with using the EPA approved chemical Naled for aerial mosquito control…” The […]

[…]Monsanto’s Roundup weedkiller, in food.”1Cur Although the bill would only ban late-harvest spraying of glyphosate on oats and require the federal government to test popular kids foods for the herbicide that’s been linked to cancer, it’s a start in the right direction. And it’s about time. Key provisions in DeLauro’s bill include:1 Prohibiting the spraying of glyphosate as a pre-harvest drying agent on oats. Lowering by 300-fold the permissible level of glyphosate residues on oats, restoring the legally allowed level to just 0.1 parts per million, or ppm. Requiring the Department of Agriculture to regularly test fruits, vegetables and other […]

Once again, the government has chosen to ignore the many voices crying danger; the chemical they are going to douse Houston residents in is the Naled. (Don’t fret, the Air Force insists they won’t be using large enough amounts to cause harm to humans.) As you will remember from last year, the insecticide Naled is manufactured and sold by a strategic partner of Monsanto and banned in the EU because of the risks it poses to human health: “Naled is a known neurotoxin […]

Aerial is Spraying For Zika Over The City The Department of Heath in New York is launching an all-out attack against mosquitoes carrying Zika Virus, amid growing concern. While the city has assured its residents that they are in no danger of Zika Virus (so why does the video talk exclusively about Zika?) they have decided to assault the city with chemicals, explaining that local mosquitoes are spreading other diseases like the West Nile Virus. With summer just a month away, and with mosquito season upon us, the city will begin a three day aerial bombardment of marsh and other non-residential […]

[…]encompasses several approaches to addressing the climate problem, Monday’s debate focused on the spraying of sulfate aerosols high in the atmosphere, a relatively inexpensive option and the one likeliest to be deployed on a large scale. The effect would mimic the global cooling power of large volcanic eruptions, which send similar chemicals into the atmosphere. The particles reflect sunrays and have been known to cause unusually cool weather — “volcanic winters” — for months or even years afterward. The effects of those winters are potentially severe. The 1991 explosion of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines cooled global temperatures for several […]

[…]Journalists Although there was no reported evidence of harm caused to humans by the incident, spraying methyl parathion “would plainly violate” the ban, William Jordan, a former deputy director of EPA’s pesticides office, told POGO in an email. People spraying the pesticide, and likely their corporate employer, “would be liable for the violation.” “Monsanto is the expert at this, so it’s not like some farmer who may not be aware of the law,” added Fred Burnside, a former senior EPA criminal enforcement official. In his opinion, the apparent downgrading of charges by Main Justice in the Monsanto case “is odd […]

Since the spraying began, passengers have reported flu-like symptoms, sinus issues, rash/hives, headaches, and swollen joints- and that’s just some of what’s been reported; far more serious issues like acute respiratory problems and anaphylactic shock have also occurred. But don’t worry, the WHO says there is no evidence that spraying insecticide in enclosed spaces, onto people, is dangerous. The most common pesticides used on airplanes are the synthetic pyrethroids permethrin and d-phenothrin […]

So in 1991, a report based on those studied said that spraying malathion didn’t pose a serious threat to the “majority” of residents…unless it did and people got rashes, hives or had other allergic symptoms. Super. Oh, and the EPA warned people to not be in contact with high doses because it could overstimulate the nervous system, induce nausea, dizziness or confusion- but other than that- they were golden. Then in 1994 the pesticide was sprayed over 32,400 homes in LA County and from February to May about 250 residents reported skin rashes, allergic reactions, […]

For example, in Texas — where 5.8 million acres got an emergency exemption to spray — more than 800 native bee species and eight species of bumblebees reside. It is also a critical migration route for monarch butterflies. Burd stated: “Monarch butterflies and eight species of bumblebees do overlap with Texas counties where there is sulfoxaflor spraying. Even at subacute, very low doses, sufoxaflor will have a very dramatic effect on bumblebee reproduction.”1 Sulfoxaflor, made by Dow AgroSciences, […]
