Pesticidi - Zašto Ne

UPOTREBA KEMIJSKIH PESTICIDA U SADAŠNJIM KOLIČINAMA NIJE NI SIGURNA NI ODRŽIVA!

Pesticidi - Zašto Ne

UPOTREBA KEMIJSKIH PESTICIDA je rasprostranjena, ne samo u agrokulturi („proizvodi za zaštitu bilja“), nego i u raznim industrijama, uključujući proizvodnju lijekova, tekstila, namještaja i kozmetike (biocidi).

U PRAKSI SE NE POŠTUJE PRAVO JAVNOSTI DA ZNA KOJI SU OTROVI PRISUTNI U PROIZVODIMA I HRANI KOJU KORISTI

UPOZORENJA O MOGUĆIM ŠTETNIM UČINCIMA KEMIJSKIH PESTICIDA NA LJUDSKO ZDRAVLJE I OKOLIŠ POTPUNO SU NEADEKVATNA

LJUDSKO PRAVO NA IZBOR ALTERNATIVNIH SREDSTAVA BEZ PESTICIDA JE NARUŠENO

NEISPRAVNE MJERE ZAŠTITE

ODOBRENJA I OBNOVE dodjeljuju se na temelju neobjavljenih studija 'sigurnosti' koje financira industrija.

NEOVISNE STUDIJE objavljene u recenziranim časopisima ne uzimaju se u obzir.

PRODULJENJA ODOBRENJA za godinu dana ili više dodjeljuju se često automatski.

PRIVREMENA ODOBRENJA mogu se izdati za pesticide koji su još uvijek u fazi procjene.

KANDIDATI ZA ZAMJENU su pesticidi za koje se zna da su vrlo opasni po zdravlje, ali su ipak dopušteni dok se ne proizvede alternativa.

„SIGURNOSNE RAZINE“ opasnih ostataka kemijskih pesticida u hrani (Maximum Residual Levels - MRLs) čisto su teoretske i temelje se na pojedinačnim tvarima, a ne i na njihovim kombinacijama kako se te tvari najčešće pojavljuju u hrani.

„SIGURNOSNI“ TESTOVI uključuju neprihvatljivo mučenje stotina različitih životinja.

ZABRANAMA opasnih pesticida treba godinama da dospiju na snagu i ni tada se ne provode odmah.

ODSTUPANJA se mogu koristiti kako bi se zaobišle zabrane.

RIZICI ZA PČELE, DRUGE OPRAŠIVAČE I PTICE nisu uključeni u brojnim primarnim upozorenjima o opasnosti koja su dio označavanja pesticida u EU.

NAVODNE KORISTI pesticidnih proizvoda snažno promoviraju proizvođači i zakonodavci, kao i mnoge vlade, regionalne i lokalne vlasti, zdravstvene vlasti, agronomi kao i prodavači krajnjih proizvoda.

KORISNICI PESTICIDA nisu prikladno informirani ili educirani o opasnostima koje dolaze s pesticidima.

VELIKE AGRO-KEMIJSKE TVRTKE nemilosrdno se protive svakom pokušaju smanjenja upotrebe pesticida u svijetu.

ALTERNATIVE KEMIJSKIM PESTICIDIMA u poljoprivredi ne promiču se poljoprivrednicima niti vrtlarima ni na jednoj konkretnoj razini.

RAZINE PESTICIDA U LJUDIMA i njihova moguća povezanost s lošim zdravljem nisu sustavno istražene.

  • ‘National scandal’: extreme heat linked to 40,000 deaths in England between 1988 and 2025

    ONS data shows rising toll of climate crisis, with officials warning this summer on track to set further records

    More than 40,000 extra people died on the hottest days in England between 1988 and 2025 than would be expected in normal temperatures, according to data published by the Office for National Statistics on Wednesday.

    The figures do not include this summer, when England has sweltered under a succession of heatwaves and is on track to record its highest ever number of heat-related deaths. The UK Health Security Agency announced on 30 July that an estimated 2,877 people had died in the May and June heatwaves alone. The total is almost double the figure for the whole summer in 2025.

  • 1.3m plastic bottles collected in a day in global volunteer ocean cleanup

    Ocean Conservancy says last year’s cleanup collected 13.9m pieces of rubbish from beaches and rivers worldwide

    More than 1.3m plastic bottles were collected from beaches, rivers and waterways last year during the world’s largest single-day volunteer ocean cleanup.

    About 630,000 people took part in the International Coastal Cleanup in 2025, removing almost 13.9m pieces of rubbish from more than 15,000 miles of coastline and waterways.

  • Heatwaves show UK must do more to promote cycling and walking, campaigners say

    Civil society groups argue climate crisis means transport sector needs to urgently reduce its carbon emissions

    Dozens of civil society groups have demanded the UK government do more to promote cycling and walking, after this summer’s extreme heat exposed the desperate need to decarbonise transport.

    This summer’s heatwaves and wildfires were “immediate, real-world manifestations of the climate emergency”, the groups said, making reform of transport – responsible for more carbon emissions than any other sector in the UK – an urgent priority.

  • Sand overextraction weakening riverbanks as concrete demand soars

    Research finds demand has more than doubled since 2000 and 80% of current demand comes from Asia

    A booming demand for concrete has resulted in sand and gravel being extracted from riverbeds faster than nature can replenish it. A study published in Reviews of Geophysics shows that the demand for sand and gravel has more than doubled in the last two decades, with overextraction leading to weaker riverbanks, lower groundwater levels, coastal salt intrusion and poorer water quality.

    In 2024, city-building and infrastructure projects around the world turned 28bn tonnes of sand and gravel into concrete. Researchers reviewed data on sand and gravel extraction going back to 1974 and have shown that since 2000 demand has more than doubled, with more than 80% of current demand coming from Asia, supporting urban development and road-building across China and India in particular. They found much of the material was being extracted from rivers across Asia and Africa. Data on extraction is scarce but where it does exist the researchers showed that extraction often exceeded natural sediment replacement severalfold.

  • Mood-boosting benefits of birdsong drowned out by traffic noise, study finds

    Even low levels of traffic noise can negate the benefits of listening to natural sounds, researchers say

    Hearing the trill or whistle of a bird while going about daily life is well known to boost people’s mood. But a new study suggests the psychological benefits of hearing birdsong are being threatened by traffic noise.

    Researchers found that even low levels of traffic noise negatively affected the benefits to wellbeing that could otherwise be derived from listening to natural sounds.

  • Call to ban marmot hunting in France as campaigners say they are ‘killed for fun’

    Protests and petitions planned amid growing concerns over impact of climate crisis on numbers of Alpine rodent

    Animal rights campaigners are gearing up for protests and petitions aimed at persuading the French government to ban the hunting of Alpine marmots.

    Open season on the rodents, members of the squirrel and groundhog family, begins in September, a few weeks before they go into a long winter hibernation.

  • Country diary: A farm that’s a pocket rocket of rewilding – and a success in the face of opposition | Amy-Jane Beer

    Asturias, Spain: Wild Finca is thrilling in its ecological abundance, and was created in just eight years despite countless obstacles

    On a rocky 13-hectare pocket in the foothills of the Picos de Europa, Luke Massey and Katie Stacey are raising children, dogs, cattle, chicken, ducks, geese and eyebrows. In their eight years here, the farm they call Wild Finca has become a mass of scrub, with scattered large trees and dozens of clearings that Luke calls fields, but which look more like tiny irregular glades, riddled with trails and hemmed all around by the blackthorn, gorse and bramble that has sprung up around the tumbled remains of drystone walls.

    If Wild Finca is a forever home to the Massey-Staceys, it is a whole world to nature. Witness the butterflies and wasp spiders, the snakes, lizards, hedgehogs and sparrows, and the thousand-piece cricket orchestra that performs each evening as the glow-worms light up. It offers denning and roosting sites for foxes, pine martens, badgers and 17 species of bat, feeding opportunities for roe deer and wild boar, several species of eagle and vulture, and a pit stop for others such as the nightingale I heard singing in early morning mist.

  • ​W​hy are European leaders staying silent after our summer of climate shock?

    Lethal temperatures ​and wildfires have exposed a widening gulf between voters demanding ​action and politicians unwilling to confront the long-term choices global heating requires

    The climate crisis means “we’re going to have to change everything – the way we live, the way we produce, the way we trade,” France’s veteran radical-left firebrand, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, told the summer congress of his France Insoumise party last weekend.

    The term “climate change”, said Mélenchon – the most likely rival to Marine Le Pen in next year’s presidential run-off, according to one poll this week – may sound “almost reassuring”, but its actual impact will feel like “landing on another planet whenever we leave home”.

  • ‘132F’: meet the man calling out NYC’s infernally hot subway stations

    Jack Klein takes heat readings, gives fans to overheated passengers and lugs big jugs of water into the stations

    On a recent August day in the subterranean furnace of New York City’s subway, one bearded, curly haired man was studying his phone for different reasons than the other wilting passengers – to track the soaring temperatures and ponder how underground train stations can cool down in an era of climate crisis.

    Jack Klein, a 31-year-old construction site manager, has in the past two years taken it upon himself to become a sort of guerrilla subway heat operative, sticking teardrop-shaped thermometers to steel beams in seven of the hottest Manhattan stations and posting social media videos of the hades-like summer temperatures that commuters have to endure.
