After Europe banned bee killing neonicotinoid pesticides, insect numbers began to recover across farmland.
That rebound restored food webs, and insect eating birds long in decline started returning. Protect one species, and entire ecosystems respond.

While most people aren’t looking, House Republicans are quietly sliding Section 453 into the spending bill, and it’s a bombshell. The provision would give pesticide companies immunity from lawsuits, even when their products are linked to serious harm.
Brett Cooper is sounding the alarm, warning this could shield tens of thousands of chemicals, many already associated with cancer, Parkinson’s disease, infertility, and other long-term health risks. If this passes, accountability disappears, and everyday Americans lose the right to fight back in court.
So much for “Make America Healthy Again.” If corporations get protection while families get poisoned, then let’s be honest about it: MAHA is DEAD.

As the world continues to shift towards sustainability, innovative solutions are emerging to address food security in urban areas. One such solution is the transformation of empty shopping malls into indoor farms that grow fresh produce year-round. This repurposing of vacant retail spaces provides an eco-friendly way to help feed city populations while also reducing the carbon footprint associated with transporting food long distances.
Indoor farming offers several advantages, including year-round crop production regardless of climate or weather conditions. By utilizing advanced techniques like hydroponics and vertical farming, these urban farms can grow food efficiently in small spaces, making them ideal for densely populated cities. Additionally, these farms use less water than traditional agriculture, making them a more sustainable choice for the future.
This trend represents a new way of thinking about food production—one that prioritizes local, sustainable solutions to global challenges. As more cities adopt this model, we could see a significant reduction in food waste and a decrease in the need for long-distance food transport.
What are your thoughts on this innovative way of growing food? Could we see this trend spreading to more cities around the world? Share your ideas and thoughts on sustainable food production! 🌱🏙️

I have not had a microwave in my home for over six years. I rarely used the microwave at my last house. I use my toaster oven or air fryer to warm up food.

A U.S. recall of infant formula tied to multiple cases of babies sickened with botulism has sparked fears in households around the country in recent weeks. But health and legal experts say other types of contaminants such as heavy metals and pesticides could be posing additional threats. An analysis unveiled by Friends of the Earth (FOE) showed more than two dozen types of pesticides have been detected in Target's Good & Gather non-organic baby food. The analysis is the latest among many testing projects conducted in recent years showing the prevalence of pesticide residues in foods commonly fed to children and generally considered healthy. FOE said it found residues of 29 pesticides in Apple Fruit Puree and Pear Fruit Puree baby foods, including pesticides banned in the European Union, pesticides linked to hormone disruption, pesticides linked to cancer, two classes of neurotoxic pesticides, five pesticides that are PFAS ‘forever chemicals (one of which is banned in the U.S.), and 16 pesticides that are classified as “highly hazardous” to human or environmental health.
TWENTY-NINE PESTICIDES?? TARGET: STOP POISONING OUR BABIES. Yes, we have to shout. Certified organic food is the best way to reduce your baby’s exposure to toxic pesticides.
SIGN THE PETITION to urge Congress to support the Protect America’s Children from Toxic Pesticides Act, a bill that would ban many of these baby-harming pesticides found in Good & Gather Baby food: tinyurl.com/PassPACTPA
New Study: France’s Birds Show Signs of Recovery After Neonicotinoid Insecticides Ban in 2018. Bird populations appear to be making a tentative recovery after a ban on the infamous bee-killing pesticides, according to the first study to examine how wildlife is returning in Europe. Neonicotinoids (neonics, for short) are the world’s most common class of insecticides, widely used in conventional agriculture and for flea control in pets. By 2022, four years after the EU banned neonics use in fields, researchers observed that France’s population of insect-eating birds had increased by 2%-3%. These included blackbirds, blackcaps and chaffinches, which feed on insects as adults and as chicks. The lead researcher, Thomas Perrot from the Fondation pour la recherche sur la biodiversité in Paris, said: “Even a few percentage [points’] increase is meaningful – it shows the ban made a difference. Our results clearly point to neonicotinoid bans as an effective conservation measure for insectivorous birds.”
In the U.S., neonic insecticides are still widely used in GMO and conventional agriculture, killing off bees, butterflies, and other non-target beneficial insects. Studies have shown these neurotoxic pesticides harm many species, including mammals. Research has also proven that neonics aren't even necessary and are coated onto GMO and conventional seeds just so the chemical corporations can hike up the price of the seeds. Neonics, like some other widely used pesticides, are so over-used that the chemicals have polluted much of our nation's waters and is even falling down in the rain.
It is a sad story. They are so anti alternative care they will sick strictly to what the allopathic doctors say to do. My FIL was given 3-6 months to live. With minimal nutrition improvement he survived almost three years.

The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and the prevention of disease. Thomas A. Edison
"Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship to restrict the art of healing to one class of Men and deny equal privileges to others; the Constitution of the Republic should make a Special privilege for medical freedoms as well as religious freedom." Those are the words of Dr. Benjamin Rush, noted physician, medical professor, an early surgeon general to all Continental armies and a signer of the Declaration of Independence.
I started my journey in alternative health after the birth of my first child. My daughter required major surgery to correct an abdominal disorder two hours after she was born. My mother, Pat, was a Registered Dietitian. She started researching her nutrition books to set up a program of that diet and nutrition would support healthy pregnancy and other life challenges. I started working in alternative health with my family's natural food store, Pat's Health Corner, in Grandville, MI in 1981. In 1989 I became a Certified Nutritionist after completing studies at the National Institute of Nutrition Education.
I have worked and studied in Colorado, Illinois and Michigan. I shared my knowledge by leading nutrition classes at Adult Education programs. I have been a speaker for health support groups, PTO’s, and service clubs. I worked with two companies that allowed me to present nutrition seminars in Texas, California, Indiana, Nevada, Illinois and Michigan.
Providing one on one personal nutrition education through All Natural Health Care is the most satisfying part of working in the natural health arena. I also enjoy finding and sharing new ideas, supplement information and other alternative health information for my page. I like discovering the history on how the AMA and Big Pharma have attempted to make allopathic medicine the end all/ be all and limit people’s access to natural alternatives. Conventional medicine is helpful in getting a diagnosis and is great for emergency crisis situations. My daughter is alive because of the urgent medical care she received after she was born. But I have realized there are many ways they could have helped her have a healthier start in life.
The second amendment is about not abridging our Freedom of Speech. Natural health care has been under attack for over 100 years. Thankfully the DSHEA act was passed in 1994 to allow the discussion of nutrition facts that could not be denied. But we continue to fight the establishment at all turns for that Freedom of Speech.
