Our issue is to decrease pesticide use.  We want to make this change because we want everybody to be their healthiest selves and this can help with that.  Pesticides can cause all sorts of long term diseases for example it can cause cancer, Parkenson's disease which makes you lose brain cells, and can increase chances of getting diabetes.  Over 300 people die a day from pesticides.  Also people who have had high doses of pesticides have a high chance of losing their sense of smell.   Pesticides can also destroy ecosystem by killing plants, fungi, and animals.  Sometimes, it can repel mice and that means hawks will starve and have to move which means other rodents will thrive, and it will create an unhealthy environment.  It can also unintentionally hurt marine wildlife from water with pesticides in it, drifting into lakes, rivers, oceans, and more. 

           Pesticides also make fruits and vegetables somewhat unnatural since you are using man made products on or even in the produce.   Pesticides can also change the pigmentation of plants, making them lighter or darker than they should be, which isn't good because it can change the growth rate.   If you mix 2 pesticides together it can cause an unhealthy reaction. Which is why we need your help!
