MPR News: citizen pesticide monitoring effort expands

Robert Shimek tells Minnesota Public Radio:

“How much of this stuff is actually moving around into places where it shouldn’t be? Is it at or above levels that are safe for human health? This is the kind of thing that’s important to those of us who have to live in these communities,” he said. “We’re watching, we’re monitoring, we’re testing, o make sure everybody stays in compliance. It’s not about setting up an adversarial situation. It’s about taking care of people, peoples’ health.”

About

Environmental Illness Network Minnesota is a community for environmentally sensitive Minnesotans and those who care about them. This is our local Minnesota environmental health Tumblr.

When it comes to finding solutions to environmentally induced or exacerbated illnesses; it can take a community, a state, a nation, or a world. Our local community is paying attention to local, national, and global environmental health issues. We hope you will too.
