| In case you had any doubt how dramatically pesticides are harming our environment, one recent study found that pesticides have made agriculture a remarkable 48 times more toxic to insects over the past quarter century.
This incredible decline in such a relatively low amount of time is due in no small part to the contribution of a class of pesticides known as neonicotinoids, or neonics. These pesticides are found on more than 140 crops, including apples and rice, but they’re most persistent on crops like corn and soybeans because they are used to coat the seeds of such crops.
