FOR STUDENTS
END PESTICIDES IN SCHOOL FOODS
Children are being exposed daily to multiple toxic pesticides such as
and other toxic pesticides in the food they eat at school. Many of these pesticides are systemic and can not be washed off, peeled off, cooked off, or processed off. The Texas Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Program, regulated by the Texas Department of Agriculture, classifies these as HIGHLY TOXIC to children. The Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) is responsible for regulating the School Lunch Program.
This site is dedicated to sharing information about the types of multiple, highly toxic pesticides in children's foods and how chronic pesticide exposure can effect the health of children.
