Yeah, we've all been eating that poison. And we also get breast cancer and other cancers that may have links to pesticide use. Let me see if I understand you. You want to ingest a carcinogen? You want children to ingest a carcinogen? Why?
And migrant farm workers and their children are people too, if you didn't notice.
No you haven't been eating that poison. It's use is limited to pre-bloom. (source is EPA website).
Are those migrant workers taking the EPA cautions about occupation exposure into account ?
I live in Florida. If global warming forecasts are correct, most of the state won't be fit to live in 100 years from now.
The forecasts are certainly wrong, as admitted by the adherents to Castastrophic Anthropogenic Climate Adjustment (CA-CA, for short) themselves last week. Florida will be fine.

LOL..so then the question becomes how do you take climate change into account when building infrastructure when it changes so much ?
These things are present everywhere so the question is are the limitations enough, what health effects do you expect from these changes?
I can make the same arguments about everything you are posting, you need to provide specifics if you want to make any complaints about this.
As a side note I saw an interview with a manger at a foundry, he was discussing how they had to purify the water to point well beyond what it was when they obtained it.
no thanks. I'm not going to re-justify regulations that took decades to put into place with good cause.
My question to you is why INCREASE the levels of carcinogens in the environment, as many of these deregulations will do? A carcinogen has no safe level by the way, that is kind of a misleading construct.

So it must be my sister's imagination when her Miami Beach apartment building's lobby floods with brackish water after a major rainfall?
It's also her imagination all the construction on Alton Road to raise the street level because constant flooding renders the Beach impassable.
And those pump stations...yeah, that's not water they're sucking up.
This is a cruel and blood-thirsty administration. Some of the most heart-breaking de-regulations:
- Overturned a ban on the hunting of predators in Alaskan wildlife refuges
Alaskan politicians opposed the law, which prevented hunters from shooting wolves and grizzly bears on wildlife refuges, arguing that the state has authority over those lands. Congress passed a bill revoking the rule, which Mr. Trump signed into law.
Under consideration:
Ordered a review of federal regulations on hunting methods in Alaska
Obama-era rules prohibited certain hunting methods in Alaska’s national preserves. They overruled state law, which had allowed hunters to bait bears with food, shoot caribou from boats and kill bear cubs with their mothers present. This also includes a "hunting" method in which hunters are allowed to smoke out a mother wolf and her cubs from a den in order to slaughter them.
- Allowing a kind of exploratory blasting in the oceans, which involves blasts that will disorient and disturb whales and fish.
The Trump and the EPA are busy rolling back protections to our air and water.
The NY Times today listed 48 environmental protections that have already been rolled-back or are being messed with by this short-sighted administration.
How does destroying the environment, increasing mercury and lead in our water and air, threatening and killing wildlife, destroying our national parks and national monuments, help make America great again?
To me, above all, this is the worst thing this poisonous administration is doing. A few more bucks in the hands of wealthy fossil fuel companies, at the cost of the health and well-being of Americans for many decades ahead. Don't these people care about their grand-children?
Don't people understand, that Trump has to ravage the environmental protections, to keep his redneck cult appeased? They'd break their leashes and run amok, if they weren't periodically fed some red meat.
