Situation:
People living in the countryside, their home surrounded by field thinks that their health are affected by spraying of pesticides on crops. One lady, mrs wadey, whose first child was born partially sighted and asthmatic, believes that it has got some relation to the spraying of pesticides on the crops, affecting their health. Government recommended farmers to notify the people around before spraying the crops with pesticide. There is no obligation to it. One woman and her dog suffered from cancer and she suspect that there is some kind of link to the spraying of pesticides. Environmentalist and campaigners want the government to impose a buffer zone so that they their health would not be affected, however this was rejected.
=======================================================
Conclusion:
Pesticides. Angel or Devil? Both.
Pesticides are essential to help farmer to protect the crop from nasty bugs, weeds, fungi and molds.
However, pesticides can also be a devil. It can cause pollution as it seeps into the ground and eventually get into the water system.
Abuse usaga of pesticide can cause the food to be dangerous if consume.
And it may even be health hazrdous when people breathe in ( not proven yet, but just what the people believes) Precaution should be taken when handling spraying them, and i think they rally should notify the people before spraying. Prevention is better than cure. Strict regulation has to be made so that pesticides would not be abused and causing more harm than benefit.
