SHOCK HORROR! CHEMICALS DESIGNED TO ATTACK THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM OF LIVING CREATURES ARE ALSO B

A new report is out, today, which links pesticides and human health/sperm count.

USA Today claims that this is the first time a link has been made.

It isn't the first time, actually ,there are a pletora of pieces of research done on problems with pesticides.

I could link to USA Today, but instead ,check http://www.panna.org , and the story is on the homepage.

In particular, for one of many other, older, pieces of research on the dangers of pesticides, check out this piece of research:

Which outlines, to quote, 'concentrations of pesticide metabolites six times lower than children eating conventional produce'.

Many others also on the independent Irish-maintained site:
