As It Stand’s Sunday – Atrazine and Agent Orange. Once and Future Killers

images Take a look. Just another weed killer right? Wrong.

Four states are finding unacceptable levels of Atrazine, a deadly herbicide in their waterways.

People are drinking about ten times the safe level (EPA standards). 

If you live in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, or Kansas, you already know the EPA should have warned you about this last Fall. drinking-water-md

Atrazine is a descendant of Agent Orange. We all know what damage AO has caused, and is still causing. Will Syngenta (the company that produces Atrazine) take us down that same long ugly path?

See ya Sunday.
