The largest ship breaking unit is in Gujarat. And the area is now dead naturally. Remember the French, when they decided to decommission their nuclear powered naval vessel sent it half way to India , and they had to retract only after much protest by the Indian public opinion.<br />It is beyond doubt that Endosulfan and such high degree pesticides are horrible toxins that can harm more, much more than the perceived benefits from them.<br />Your statement "Thousands commit suicide using the organophosphorus compounds,they are cheaper and easy to access.So,can we ban the use of them?, I'm afraid is not inspiring.Certainly air travel has it's risk too;people jump before fast moving trains too. The fundamentals in these cases you pointed out"suicide" is different.<br />The bottom line is, the officialdom and the political clan are in cahoots with the major business interests and are purveying and pedaling harmful chemicals and encouraging its rampant use.The perils are being ignored.<br />The irony is that new synthetic pesticides bring forth new species of pests. The natural process and resistance of crops to pests are simply lost.The damage to air, water and earth are permanent or long lasting. Think of that and the transient benefits that one might gain.anilkurup59https://www.blogger.com/profile/07961961217418715354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4448802533825615490.post-51566636583065356712011-03-22T22:20:28.766+05:302011-03-22T22:20:28.766+05:30I saw you on NRIGIRLS friendship tree and wanted t...I saw you on NRIGIRLS friendship tree and wanted to stop by to say hello.

Nearly all other organochlorine pesticides already have been banned.But still,it was being used in the US,and currently legislation is on the way to prevent the use of it.<br /><br />There are no clear cut data on human effects.This is a very controversial subject.Animal studies show effects on brain development. Endosulphan is one of a kind insecticide,which is effective and can be used at the time of pollination and doesn't harm the honey bees.<br /><br />Anything can be used or misused.Thousands commit suicide using the organophosphorus compounds,they are cheaper and easy to access.So,can we ban the use of them?<br /><br />Even pesticides that are reportedly safe to be used elsewhere,cannot be used in places like Kerala because of the dense population.<br /><br />You are right about our legislators.If Phoolan Devi could sit in the Parliament, Mallaya also can.They either loot or kill.They are all weeds and pests there.The best way to try the pesticides is to try it on these kind of weeds !dr.antonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191095888228061156noreply@blogger.com
