Así que no es de sorprender que los pesticidas utilizados para matar insectos, hongos y malezas también dañen a las personas. Las enfermedades causadas por pesticidas pueden tener consecuencias devastadoras, incluyendo cáncer, alteración del sistema endocrino, daño neurológico, efectos en el intestino y el cerebro, disfunción reproductiva, discapacidades de aprendizaje, trastornos del comportamiento, enfermedad de Parkinson y más. De manera similar, los efectos devastadores de los pesticidas en la biodiversidad, desde los polinizadores hasta las especies en peligro de extinción, afectan la supervivencia a largo plazo de la vida en el planeta. Esto crea un DESAFÍO EXISTENCIAL y una necesidad extraordinariamente imperiosa de acción.
