so useful to get home phone to also fun environment. so cost effective become most sustainable. i'm the whole driving, thanks for watching. the cream was like a stepping points. you know, time what you into that warranty wants to finish your studies. now you have a safety from your train, you can choose to go back or somewhere else. currently, more people than ever on the world wide in such a base in life categories. something that is coming very very soon. and can we learn more about or know when a story info, migraines, synthetic pesticides, the poisonous to the environment with our industrial food systems, the dependent on the use of these toxic chemicals. we design plans and prompts

systems so that they can compete with nature at the expense of nature. the good news is as a result, if we have something tricky, pesticide producing companies make billions in sales unless each keeps industrial food systems in place for the absolute scandals. that some companies say they are working to make products that are more sustainable. so how damaging austin septic pesticide and to what extent do we really need them to survive on since coming up in this episode of transforming business as picking the pot toy one time is backbreaking work. and especially when this evidence of unwelcome visitors, seats on here is so important, you can see it hits brown is fees of the feeding tunnel. it's a very small cabbage flies that cut up less than a through here. it doesn't look nice and you don't need the rest of the service. sure. and also these past some of those are a problem for all pharma,

but particularly here at kola, i know comic vegetable cooperative based in leipzig and germany. well, in 6 can attacks the plants causing damage and even making the vegetables on sellable left to grow, which choke of space and some lights given cropped, less chance to thrice when the invasion without fungicides and products like that, it will be very difficult to grow fruit we would need a lot more people in agriculture to do this by hand. if we wanted to do completely without it, then with all the concepts sufficient lines of, of this farm workers don't use invested chemical pesticides. instead they rely on biological emmanuel alternatives like plowing for introducing natural predators. it's more work, the pharma jacob, including us thinks that has to be an end to industrial agriculture. may i think you can see the impact of this for most economic activity that we've been practicing since the 1940s in the extinction of species worldwide. it. com. keep on

like this or vital game kind of. it's a growing perspective here in germany. people are becoming as a more skeptical of synthetic pesticides. organic farming has grown from covering 2.9 percent of land to 1999 to just on to 10 percent in 2022. the crop protection industry has continued to grow to an estimated value of around $78700000000.00 in 2022. according to market intelligence agency, s and p global. the top consume is of pesticides worldwide. a brazil family in the lead followed in just seconds by the usa and then indonesia, argentina, and china performance in those countries faced the growing problem. when you use one herbicides in lodge moans, the likelihood that you find resistance against that is increasing. that's biased head of sustainability mathias bounding and he should know bias leading pesticide round up contains likes to say one of the most widely used type of sites in the

world. tolerance has a building up over time against all of the who are besides use meat palm, i'm around a weed closing. have like components sleeping fields across the us and resistance multiple her besides including glasses, 8, a biased, corrupt science research laboratories and frank foot. the company is developing a new pest decide to come by the suite until the room, once the plants that have become resistant to current the sides. they spray weeds with tests components using cameras to collect data or on their impact. the results as a new weed killer castle in the targets unwanted plants that have already a much from the ground technology is essential, bi, assigned to say, using occupational intelligence and a new approach. they cool kropke, they've been able to narrow down molecules, but specifically target the weights and the to say for, for use of the environment. and it's able to, for example,

slow down the roles fall, killed the plan altogether. why is that important? every spring, when a farmer kind of comes out and so kind of puts new seats in the ground, those seats competes with the existing plants was weeds, the new hub aside, just ongoing, a long term study to discover any risks as part of the eventual registration process the founding us, as by a con, rule out all negative impacts associated with pesticides. while it will have negative impacts for sampling bio diversity because it, this is designs to destroy plans. for example, some insects are feeding. now. flowing has the same negative impact. so a lot what is being said about life assert, and the negative impact on biodiversity is true, but it's equally true for flowing. but it's the sixpence tonight. so that's one of the major drawbacks to synthetic pesticides. say critics, what are those impacts?

one of the most commonly known is the impact on these and other insects, vital and pulling things. some of our crops around $1.10, b and butterfly species is threatened with extinction in europe. according to e, figures with pesticides among the causes, pesticides also degrade into soil humming organisms that keep us healthy, like us ones, and i'd be told they can stay, that's the use and impact before it was the ability to absorb carbon dioxide. then this water pesticides can run of fields and due to water sources, even making it into the ocean, poisoning, fish and wildlife. but it's not only pesticides that are causing the damage expert say industrial agriculture in general is taking a huge, told you reduced by diversity. basically producing deadlines. guy p a is a conservation biologist, an idea of the german sense of integrative by it of us to research. and the us said

home health center for environmental research. so the current modem, production is extremely efficient. we're producing a lot, much more than we need in fact, but we are losing everything with it. we're losing the farmers, we're losing nature. we're losing soil and we're poisoning the consumers in the water. and that means that we really have to find solutions to vision. turns even more the production without losing the capacity to produce enough food for a growing population. it's 2022. the european commission adopted a proposal for new regulation with you wide targets to reduce by 50 percent. the use of risk of chemical pesticides by 2030, it was positive plants to reduce the environmental footprint of the ease food system and to help mitigate the economic losses. but the sustainable use regulation, as it was cold with scrapped of to being able to down with observe as blaming

lobbying from pesticide produces the final proposal became so weak that many political groups on the left and progressive day. so this is worse than the know that in half. so we kind of left this past, nina holland as a research and campaign at n g o corporate to europe, tips of a tree which tracks business lobbying in europe. they were continually and, and ironically, helped by external circumstances like the cold with crisis and the war by russia and ukraine is that basic is fueled and you run the risk of saying, we can't absolutely be cons, reduce the use of these substances right now because of the for security globally switched from syngenta is the biggest player in the pesticide market, followed by german companies, buy a and b, a ss us based pull teva, and indian some u. p l. the between 20202022

the company, spent 40400000 euros along with crop protection in agricultural lobbying groups. lobbying against you policies, including the proposal and another 15000000 in 2023. basically what they were fighting for was their own profits. it goes with a 50 percent reduction target, their profit to would have gone down to fruit as well. another may just set back for campaign is, was the re approval of controversial club aside like to say within the you the pesticides is the main ingredients in round up a. we can look up by a took over when it bowed to us our grow chemical company, monsanto, in 2018. the world health organization has categorized life. the site is probably costing to genic to humans, although by and maintains it's safe and the european food safety authority set a time to know critical areas of concerns. european union has the most trick

way of proving pesticides in the process as the silicon valley of regulation. if something is even safe enough to be approved by process, we can assume it's safe. but not everyone is convinced most of the seo and we as an organization of work in the defense of human rights. and in the field of human rights. we work for the rights of food, the right to land, the right to health and the right to the environment that attends suddenly that until i may amend maria who is safe and non seo is a human life. its lawyer at the center of the legal and social studies of origin, tina, along with several of the n g o is the center, has filed a complaint with the organization for economic cooperation and development, the cd against bias business practices in south america. i did wanna watch the maximum, it's based on a model of maximum profitability, but they're trying to do it to so the largest area of land that's possible without farmers but directly through machines using genetically modified seats with the

package of poisons. that includes the life of states so that the land can do more and more, but it is land that keeps degrading so that no other things can be planted there, interrupted the supports and metal. according to the organizations largely based in south america, on average, more than 50 percent of the agricultural land in argentina for sale, parkway and bolivia is cultivated with soybeans. many genetically modified to withstand the effects of life the state used to kill the surrounding we. they all accuse it as a result, people in the region suffer from poisoning and serious diseases. the water sources can no longer be used, and the thousands of peck tests for us to being cut down to make way for solely being plantations threatening local animals implants. these are the direct consequences of the agricultural model promoted by the multinational. some european based, awkward chemical companies also continue to sell pesticides bonds in the u in south

america and beyond pesticides containing power. quite a we've kind of manufactured by syngenta linked to parkinson's disease that has been found in the e. u since 2007 for example, and actually seeing the 2nd most widely used type of site in the us. it cannot be that that you hold still such double standards that it allows corporations to produce inside to in your products. it has long bend. in order to export, it's around the world 2 countries like from ukraine to see it now to south africa, to brazil, and do incredible home to people, communities and to the environment at large. with so many health and environmental drawbacks associated with fantastic pesticides. the question is, do we need them to minister for law? i don't acro, chemical sense. soft of sick? well for, for industrial farming production is rocketed in the decades. the followed,

but it's devastating populations of bees and the other pollinators destroyed soil and contaminated water. a new generation of pesticides, like those being developed by, by a cut off for some solution. but only if it comes with a change in the way and quantity the pesticides they used, which bounding us as the company plans to promote. so we are absolutely in table for using. we also invested in digital electric hyphen, which will change the wage for protection is applied drones, would apply it on the spot early on and not in a broad scale across all the fields. still stomachs, but say it doesn't go far enough and that's an entire overall if the funding system is needed to take away the reliance on chemicals, the current model of production is actually forcing us to use pesticides. yukon do with out. so farmers are becoming more more dependent on pesticides because the larger of the field is the more sensitive it is to the tax. if you have large

amount of corn and then you'll be attacked by whatevers, that, that attack in court in the same goes for potatoes, etc. and so you cannot really avoid pesticides without a more complicated solution. up, you got it cooperative in leipzig, was because of packing boxes to send out to the 1400 subscribers to the scheme of 35 hex, the salon. just relatively small. when compared with some conventional thumbs. but there were plans for the cooperative and a sustainable model to move and double it size office visa has evolved before them and we have an extension of species that was unprecedented before human successes. and i believe that this equal system would continue to break down and decay and that life will become difficult for us sooner or later if we don't try to move in the right direction. my time is obviously with the lot. i think we can achieve an incredible amount to agriculture because our great culture and uses and requires so much land worldwide. and i believe it would actually make a huge difference when it comes to buy diversity and climate change will be my my

i'm, i'm good. what do you think? should we be relying on synthetic pesticides to grow of crops or looking for alternatives? let us know in the comments below the a search and support profile right policies in the european elections, percent tramos across the continent. not more powerful than those heating, congress and berlin for the policies of both leaders, for trunk by far right opponents. i guess this week your central got the outgoing member of the european parliament in president macros when they saw this list, how risky is macros decision to coal snap elections in front? and when he resigned to for far right with the majority, central god. so you're welcome to come pick some thank you for inviting. are you

looking? you'll lose this morning. why do i need.
