The U.S. and California Departments of Agriculture want us to believe that the tiny, exotic Light Brown Apple Moth is a threat to our food supply and ecology, even though it's done no actual damage to crops nor forests, and there's no evidence that it will. We are told the pesticides they're using are safe and environmentally friendly, but hundreds of people have been injured already, and pets, and hundred of birds have died. Come listen to their stories, and participate in a brainstorm about what to do when this poisonous pesticide program comes to your town.
IT'S NOT SAFE – IT'S NOT EFFECTIVE – IT'S NOT NECESSARY!
250 TWIST TIES PER ACRE / 3,000 UTILITY POLES & TREES PER SQUARE MILE / 693.8 SQUARE MILES BY PLANES / HOSING DOWN NEIGHBORHOODS
