Hi everyone,
Have you seen the recent news about pesticide residues found in Australian fruit and vegetables? A recent report tested produce from major supermarkets Woolworths, Aldi and Coles, and reported several samples exceeding legal residue limits, plus the presence of banned substances! This raises concerns about pesticide use and food safety.
Check out the news article here: https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/tests-reveal-toxic-pesticides-and-forever-chemicals-in-aussie-supermarket-produce/news-story/ee04a509d983bb07288f76d67da96a46
From the article - “Australia has a pesticide problem. Australia approves hundreds of hazardous pesticides that are banned overseas, and our government is failing to regularly test for residues. As a result, more hazardous pesticides are ending up on our plates, Reducing chemicals sprayed on farms and on our food is a win-win for the country. It’s better for our health, and better for our environment. ”
