Notwithstanding
the annual consumption of several million tons of pesticides by the
agri-business that the recent study on the link
shows
that they are already starting to make a dent in European soils, the fact is
that some lunatics really believe that if we continue at this rate, the worse
that can happen is just having less nasty insects and fewer noisy birds.
On
this issue its also important to take a look into recent study below that shows
the agri-business companies do not want to reduce the amount of pesticides
because they seem to be "addicted" to abuse:
“It has been recognized that maximizing profit is not
the only driver of farmers' behavior … show farms overuse pesticides
compared with the profit-maximizing levels.”
When
adding pesticides to antibiotics we get the beautiful result that was reported
on the link below https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/apr/08/pesticides-antibiotics-polluting-streams-europe-wildlife
which, however, is only a small part
of the filthy inheritance
that the present generation intends to leave to future generations. The real size
of this inheritance has been brilliantly quantified in here. https://www.docdroid.net/c1hnxzz/2019-greta-thunberg.pdf
