"It should be the United States that proves that there is no long-term risk to human health from the direct consumption of [genetically modified corn]," wrote Mexico-based consumer rights group @elpoderdelc. @CFSTrueFood @foe_us @FarmBureau @nongmoreport thenewlede.org/2024/04/us-hea…
Across the world, regulation of agricultural biotechnology is creating increasingly concerning barriers to US agriculture and technology trade, according to a recent report from @USTradeRep. ✍️@jhett93. @EU_Commission @CropLifeAmerica @EPA @Greenpeace thenewlede.org/2024/04/not-ju…
The worst polluter in US history isn’t coal or hard rock mining. Not refining or chemical manufacturing. Not wastewater treatment plants. Not urban sprawl. It’s agriculture. An environmental law, Clean Water Act, immunized farming from oversight. iowacapitaldispatch.com/2024/04/21/its…
🚨Polluters must pay for cleaning up "forever chemicals" under new @EPA rule. “This is great news for the many communities grappling with #PFAS contamination — many of which are also low income and communities of color,” said @UCSF's Tracey Woodruff. thenewlede.org/2024/04/epa-mo…
Breaking: The @EPA allocates $7 billion to expand low-income residential solar programs nationwide, benefiting 900,000 households. "The United States can and must lead the world in transforming our energy systems," said @SenSanders. @ENERGY @SolarInsure thenewlede.org/2024/04/epa-an…
Pollution spreads from Midwest farms to the Gulf: “Algae blooms cause massive fish kills…It’s affecting the overall ecology of the system…We consume water out of the river. I try not to think about it. It scares me.” @modeshift @thenewledenews iowacapitaldispatch.com/2024/04/21/its…
Among the culprits of a deepening water pollution crisis is a colossal tide of fertilizer and animal manure that runs off fields in Iowa and other farm states to find its way into the Mississippi River. Via @thenewledenews buff.ly/3vZAzI1
From @thenewledenews #ICYMI The report, based on 7 years of data..., concluded that 20% of 59 different fruit and vegetable categories included in the analysis carried residue levels that posed “significant risks” to consumers of those foods. #pesticides bit.ly/3U7QifZ
The @EPA has finalized a landmark rule designating #PFAS chemicals as hazardous substances. This crucial step holds polluters accountable, ensuring cleanup and reducing toxic exposure for Americans. @UCSF_PRHE @RobertBilott @ewg @PFASactiongroup thenewlede.org/2024/04/epa-mo…
New analysis by @ConsumerReports reveals alarming levels of pesticide residues in common fruits & veggies, posing "significant risks" to consumers' health. Bell peppers, blueberries, green beans, potatoes, & strawberries among high-risk foods. @ewg @EPA thenewlede.org/2024/04/3239/
The @EPA has called nutrient pollution “the single greatest challenge to our nation’s water quality,” and acknowledges that much of the nutrient pollution flowing into the northern Gulf originates on agricultural land. @modeshift @circleofblue @IowaStateU thenewlede.org/2024/04/its-ge…
Health advocates celebrated the news and some called for further action to limit exposure to the pervasive chemicals. @thenewledenews truthout.org/articles/pollu…

Animal manure and fertilizer connected to factory farms are known to pollute waterways and create severe health problems for people and the environment. ewg.life/441STMZ
The worst polluter in US history isn’t coal or hard rock mining. Not refining or chemical manufacturing. Not wastewater treatment plants. Not urban sprawl. It’s agriculture. An environmental law, Clean Water Act, immunized farming from oversight. iowacapitaldispatch.com/2024/04/21/its…
Pollution spreads from Midwest farms to the Gulf: “Algae blooms cause massive fish kills…It’s affecting the overall ecology of the system…We consume water out of the river. I try not to think about it. It scares me.” @modeshift @thenewledenews iowacapitaldispatch.com/2024/04/21/its…
Among the culprits of a deepening water pollution crisis is a colossal tide of fertilizer and animal manure that runs off fields in Iowa and other farm states to find its way into the Mississippi River. Via @thenewledenews buff.ly/3vZAzI1
From @thenewledenews #ICYMI The report, based on 7 years of data..., concluded that 20% of 59 different fruit and vegetable categories included in the analysis carried residue levels that posed “significant risks” to consumers of those foods. #pesticides bit.ly/3U7QifZ
Health advocates celebrated the news and some called for further action to limit exposure to the pervasive chemicals. @thenewledenews truthout.org/articles/pollu…
Today @EPA designated 2 #PFAS chemicals as hazardous substances, a move designed to make polluters pay for cleanup. Last week, the agency announced a rule setting the first enforceable limits on PFAS in drinking water. thenewlede.org/2024/04/epa-mo…
EPA has taken the rare step of issuing a warning about “serious, permanent, and irreversible health risks” associated with a chemical - DCPA - used to kill weeds on farms & golf courses and athletic fields tinyurl.com/4nnfndmd @thenewledenews
“People need to be concerned because we see that the more data we gather on pesticides, the more we realize the levels that we previously thought to be safe turn out not to be." thenewlede.org/2024/04/3239/ @EPA @thenewledenews @ConsumerReports
Best management practices aren’t working to stem farm pollution. The US spent more than $30 billion since 1997 on efforts to clean up the Mississippi Basin, but in 2023 EPA said “Attempts to address nutrients are complex, difficult, and often costly.” thenewlede.org/2024/04/its-ge…
