The APVMA (Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority) in Australia needs to start recognizing and internalizing this readily available research and make PROFOUND CHANGES TO THE WAY THEY THINK AND DO. Note: "...we need to make a huge shift in the way we regulate chemicals... Our regulators have made yet another mistake and while they will say there are no problems with the existing system and will defend it, along with the manufacturing industry, it will eventually be changed - it will just take 10 or 20 years for it to happen" (Dingle, 2005).
Meanwhile our children get sick and die from pesticide-induced cancers & other illnesses by the truckload. These were once illnesses that were reserved for the elderly, but which are now the domain of our precious youth through the flooding of our environment with highly toxic chemicals.
Note: "A child's brain is also more vulnerable because of the immaturity of the blood-brain-barrier, which is designed to protect it from toxins. Even in adults this barrier cannot protect the brain from many heavy metals and synthetic chemicals such as solvents and pesticides. In infants it is almost totally ineffective against most modern day chemicals. This dramatically increases the risk of both temporary and permanent damage to the brain. It's possible that early exposure to some chemicals may permanently reduce the effectiveness of the blood brain barrier, allowing increased passage of toxins to the brain, and increasing the person's vulnerability to certain chemicals throughout their life" (Dingle 2005). Again, how many children live... anywhere near agriculture, parks and golf courses where pesticides are liberally sprayed? Do any of these children matter? Or does only the convenience of NOW matter everywhere for the businesses, Councils and golf clubs that believe their spraying activities are more important than OUR VERY FUTURE... the future of this world locked inside our children?
