In addition to poisoning humans, pesticides affect agricultural ecosystems and spread beyond into surrounding terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. As a result, detrimental environmental effects follow pesticide use in the United States. Some of these are delineated below ... [Pg.319]

From this analysis it is clear that in addition to their benefits, the use of pesticides in food production not only causes serious public health problems but also considerable damage to vital agricultural and natural ecosystems in the United States and world. A conservative estimate suggests that the environmental and social costs of pesticide use in the United States total about 4 billion each year. Worldwide the yearly environmental and public health costs are probably at least 100 billion. This is several times the 18 bllllon/yr spent on pesticides in the world. [Pg.320]

All our natural resources must be used carefully to maximize their contributions, not only to sustain the current productivity of world agriculture, but to be able to augment its yields. Both our vast agricultural system and the broader ecosystem must receive greater protection than ever before from all pollutants including pesticides. Certainly this is possible to achieve, if humans work together for the good of society. [Pg.321]
