Studies show children of agricultural working families are at serious risk of developing irreversible neurological damage from prolonged exposure to pesticides.

America’s Children and the Environment (ACE), a division of the federal Environmental Protection Agency, states: “Studies evaluating the role of pesticides in birth defects have established a connection between maternal and paternal exposure to pesticides and greater dangers of offspring having or dying from birth defects.”

At more than 12 million pounds reported use per year, 1,3-D is the third most heavily applied pesticide in California agriculture, used as a pre-plant soil fumigant for berry crops along the Central Coast and for almonds, walnuts, sweet potatoes, and other crops in the San Joaquin Valley. 1,3-D is highly volatile, is classified as a Toxic Air Contaminant and a Prop. 65 carcinogen, and is banned in 34 countries. It is manufactured by Dow Chemical, an intervenor on the side of DPR in the case.

“We applaud the court’s ruling striking down DPR’s immoral and unjust draft regulation,” said Angel Garcia, co-director of the Lindsay-based Californians for Pesticide Reform. “The court has ruled that a draft rule that would have allowed farmworkers to work right next to the edge of treated fields while they are being fumigated was unlawful. We look forward to a new regulation that corrects the profound environmental injustice of failing to protect farmworkers from this highly hazardous and drift-prone chemical.”

In this 2013 photo by Damian Dovarganes, an unsuspecting foreman watches workers pick fruit in an orchard in Arvin, CA. Today, lawsuits argue pesticide caused brain damage in children with agricultural workers and communities in Central Valley, California being at the highest risk of exposure. Studies show after decades of use, effects linger with measurable levels still found in homes, bedding, and even children's toys.

“Bayer-Monsanto's Top 17 most awful products ever created: Bayer completed its purchase of Monsanto in 2018, in a move that the company's own investors have rebelled against in recent months to the tune of a multi-billion dollar class action lawsuit against the company. Bayer thought it could sweep Monsanto's name under the rug and the world would forget. But the acquisition only brings more light to Bayer's own sordid past.”

Pesticide use health risks outweigh the reward! Prior to the 1940s, toxic pesticides did not exist. Instead, people used time-tested cultural, biological, and mechanical methods. Creating healthy and safe landscapes can be as simple as growing specific plants or introducing other insects to deter pests.

“Pesticides can cause short-term adverse health effects, called acute effects, as well as chronic adverse effects that can occur months or years after exposure. Examples of acute health effects include stinging eyes, rashes, blisters, blindness, nausea, dizziness, diarrhea and death. Examples of known chronic effects are cancers, birth defects, reproductive harm, immunotoxicity, neurological and developmental toxicity, and disruption of the endocrine system.

Some people are more vulnerable than others to pesticide impacts. For example, infants and young children are known to be more susceptible than adults to the toxic effects of pesticides. Farm workers and pesticide applicators are also more vulnerable because they receive greater exposures.”

“3M announced that by the end of 2025 it will stop manufacturing the toxic "forever chemicals" known as PFAS and work to discontinue their use.

But it's too little, too late, because 3M has known for more than 50 years that PFAS chemicals are toxic.

Global polluter 3M has engaged in decades of deception, knowing its PFAS products were toxic but hiding that information from the public. It's why babies in the womb are born pre-polluted with toxic PFAS, and why PFAS exposure is a problem throughout the U.S.

EW estimates there may be more than 40,000 industrial polluters of PFAS in the U.S. and more than 200 million Americans could be drinking water contaminated with PFAS. PFAS build up in our bodies and never break down in the environment. Very low doses of PFAS have been linked to suppression of the immune system, developmental and reproductive harm and increased risk of certain cancers.

It's virtually impossible to avoid being exposed to PFAS chemicals. They're in almost everything we encounter every day - cosmetics, tap water, dust, furniture, cookware, clothing, food like fruit and vegetables that have residues of pesticides on them, food storage containers and packaging.”

Over the past few years, there have been many high-profile lawsuits filed against pesticide manufacturers by people who developed a serious illness as a result of pesticide exposure. The first of these major lawsuits involved the pesticide glyphosate which is the active ingredient in Roundup, one of the most commonly used pesticides in the United States. Ultimately, thousands of plaintiffs filed suit, claiming that exposure to glyphosate caused them to develop non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Other pesticides have been the topic of similar lawsuits. Plaintiffs filed suit against the manufacturers of chlorpyrifos, alleging that exposure to the pesticide had resulted in neurological injuries. Most recently, plaintiffs have been filing claims against the manufacturers of paraquat, linking it to Parkinson’s disease.

“Every year, millions of pounds of neonicotinoids - a highly toxic class of insecticides - are applied as coatings to crop seeds.

Often, these seeds are consumed by birds and other wildlife, and the impacts are deadly. The American Bird Conservancy found that a single seed coated with neonics is enough to kill a songbird.

But due to a gaping hole in EPA's regulations, these toxic seeds are largely unregulated. The result?
Every year, pesticides kill 100 million birds in the United States.
must close this loophole, and regulate treated seeds the same way they do other pesticide products. Exempting them puts all of us in danger. Act now to protect all wildlife, pollinators, and humans - it's not just for the birds.”
