EPA should evaluate and ban endocrine-disrupting pesticides and make organic food production and land management the standard that legally establishes toxic pesticide use as “unreasonable.”
Moreover, proper prevention practices, like buying, growing and supporting organics, can eliminate exposure to toxic pesticides.
Organic agriculture has many health and environmental benefits that curtail the need for chemical-intensive agricultural practices.
Regenerative organic agriculture nurtures soil health through organic carbon sequestration while preventing pests and generating a higher return than chemical-intensive agriculture.
