The future of a controversial agricultural pesticide remains very much in limbo, the victim of both scientific uncertainty and political malfeasance.
I am talking about neonicotinoids, a family of insecticides first deployed in the 1990s as an agricultural insecticide applied mostly as a seed coating and thought to be both more effective and less toxic to beneficial insects, including bees. Yet because of fears based on controversial and less-than-convincing laboratory studies that neonics, as they are called, might harm honeybees or wild bees, the European Union issued a moratorium in 2014 on their use. Since then, farmers in England have turned to other pesticides, which has turned out to be problematic ecologically for bees.
Link sends me to an article on Earths magnetic field.
Yep, Ace, agreed, as usual I might add. The matter has appeared to me: Ace when you text about bees and I respond, the word AGREED appears nearly 100 percent of the time.
