Andr? Leu challenges conventional farming methods by refuting the myths that surround the use and understanding of pesticides. He exposes the dangers of these chemicals and advocates organic practices as the most viable for farming in the 21st Century. The chemical-based conventional agriculture industry claims that the synthesized concoctions they sell as pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides are safe when used as directed, but does the scientific evidence truly support their assertions? Organic agriculturist and lecturer Andr? Leu delves into a wealth of respected scientific journals to present the peer-reviewed evidence that proves the claims of chemical companies and pesticide regulators are not all they seem. Leu translates technical jargon into layman's terms to break down the five most repeated myths about pesticide use: independent scientific analysis shows that pesticides are not at all as safe as industry leaders and regulatory agencies claim. The pesticide industry argues that human agriculture, and thereby the global population itself, cannot survive without using pesticides and herbicides, but Leu warns that human health is at great risk unless we break free of their toxic hold and turn to more natural methods of pest and weed regulation.

All that you didn’t know about pesticides will knock your socks off. But don’t worry, Leu’s powerful, fast-moving account of our pesticideplanet will charge you up, not wipe you out. Never again feel tongue-tied when explaining why eating organic is more than worth it. Leu’s pulled it all together for us, brilliantly. Fascinating reading, solidly backed by science. Plus, what Leu knows firsthand, and proves here with evidence, is that we can feed ourselves wellーall of usーwithout pesticides’ horrific harms.” Frances Moore Lapp?, author, Diet for a Small Planet, cofounder, Small Planet Institute “Andr? Leu does a phenomenal job sharing over forty years of organic farming experience, and the issues surrounding pesticides. This book provides evidence from hundreds of published scientific studies that will likely cause anyone currently using pesticides to reconsider their approach and seriously question how they can be called safe. Highly recommended.” Dr. Joseph Mercola, founder, Mercola.com “As a staunch opponent of pesticides, I thought I knew the arguments. In this wonderful gift to the integrity food movement, Andr? Leu gives even the faithful a quotable, understandable, captivating text to affirm and strengthen our arguments.” Joel Salatin, founder, Polyface Farms, author, featured in The Omnivore’s Dilemma and Food, Inc.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
