Chemical manufacturers have marketed toxic pesticides and fertilizers to American farmers for more than 150 years.
"In The War on Bugs, Allen documents how chemical weapons manufacturers, among others, convinced farmers to spray their toxic wastes on our soil, devastating our land and our health. You won't believe what they didn't teach you in school. The produce aisle will never look the same to you again."
-John Passacantando, Executive Director, Greenpeace USA
