Aerial Bombardment of Pesticide Spray

Here in Sacramento the citizens have been bombarded with insecticides going on 5 nights as of tonight with no warning and no informed consent of the public. Democracy is at stake. The Sacramento-Yolo County Mosquito and Vector Control Board has taken into their hands to determine the fate of over a million people in attempt to halt West Nile Virus that is now being hailed as an "epidemic.' They are aerial spraying Pyrethrins and Piperonyl Butoxide in the form of a product called Evergreen 60-6 each night between 8pm and midnight. Residents were given no fair warning and have been told to stay inside, shut off air conditioners, bring in children's toys, pets, etc during the spray, but that it is "completely harmless." These chemicals have been found to cause cancer in laboratory animals and have increased the probability of leukemia in farm workers. I attended a 5 hour city council meeting last night where the Board voted to continue spraying because they're "damned if they do, damned if they don't." People are outraged. We are seeking assistance with finding knowledgible persons with whom to work in order to inform these Board members and the public of the facts. This is only the beginning of many sprays to come.
The epidemic is a hoax. The public welfare is at stake. Democracy is being trampled upon right here in the capitol.
