Shot in Europe, Japan, and the United States, INSECTICIDES: A LICENSE TO KILL makes a powerful case that neonicotinoids are to blame for this dramatic ecological collapse, which began in the 1990s — around the time they hit the market. Hailed as agricultural miracles, these insecticidal neurotoxins are applied directly to crop seeds, allowing farmers to reduce spraying. But as plants grow, the chemicals are incorporated into every single one of their cells. They also kill beneficial pollinators like bees and butterflies, leech into surrounding waterways, and invade human bodies. They’ve even been found in the urine of newborns.
