OTNP May 2026
Good morning lovely people! Do you drink almond milk?
In 2023 California sprayed 368 different kinds of chemicals on its almond crop. https://www.puravidaaquatic.com/wordpress/california-almonds/
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) has become an integral part of the california department of pesticide regulation cdpr. IPM is described by internet search engines as a prominent lobbying organization. Very similar to the NRA!
Quote:
Integrated Pest Management (IPM): We like to describe IPM as any approach that uses the least toxic, effective method to solve pest problems.
Sustainable Pest Management (SPM): Is a whole-system approach that builds on the concept of IPM to include Human Health & Social Equity, Environmental Protections, and Economic Vitality

That truly sounds great doesn’t it!
Well this is from the NRA:
Founded in 1871 to advance rifle marksmanship, the modern NRA has become a prominent gun rights lobbying organization while continuing to teach firearm safety and competency.
The NRA teaches “firearm safety” just like the IPM teaches “responsible pesticide use” They are both simply public relations organizations dedicated to the industry they represent.
Our cdpr sends out regular emails advertising:
“IPM Resources for Child Care Centers.”
Don’t you wish we also had the NRA actively working with child care centers? I’ll bet you the NRA wishes they had government agencies actively doing their advertising for them like the cdpr does for IPM. At least the NRA doesn’t promote waving a loaded gun around our schools indiscriminately; unlike IPM waving pesticides around our schools.
The National Park service sprays literally tons of pesticides in our toxic national parks #_OTNP; because the National Park service is working for the timber industry not you or the environment.
And if you don’t agree please take a chance to change your mind

I went into Forestry when I was in my early twenties. I was idealistic and very quickly found that money drives the management of your forest. Its not science, its not symbiotic with nature, its for profit rape of the land. Nature survives in spite of us not because of us.

Just a silly idea:
If any company markets a product to spray on more than 40 acres they can’t claim that only they, their paid employees, and best friends can see the data
Since we know that the residues are on our food and that medicines are required to have clinical trials, why don’t we require pesticides to be tested in the same progressive phases to establish safety and efficacy. These studies move from small groups testing dosage and safety to larger groups, involving thousands, to confirm effectiveness and monitor side effects.
Phase I (Small Group): Initial testing on 20–100 healthy volunteers or patients to evaluate safety, safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase II (Larger Group): Studies on 100–300 patients to assess effectiveness and further evaluate safety.
Phase III (Large Group/Final Step): Tests on 1,000–3,000+ patients to confirm efficacy, monitor side effects, and compare the drug against standard or standard-of-care treatments.
Phase IV (Post-Approval): Continued monitoring after FDA approval to study long-term safety and effectiveness in the general population.
We could start with the families of the CEOs of the pesticide manufacturers. 😃 I get it. We could never pass that law. We have to start with volunteers. But think about the possibilities 😃
We desperately need
#ChemFreeZones
Especially around our schools!
Please ask our environmental organizations to provide basic information on what pesticides the national parks are spraying.
