On 26 February 2018 EcoWatch reported: A judge has ordered the California Department of Food and Agriculture to stop using chemical pesticides in its statewide program until the agency complies with state environmental laws. Despite thousands of comment letters urging the department to take a safer approach, officials in 2014 approved a program that gave them broad license to spray 79 pesticides, some known to cause cancer and birth defects, anywhere in the state, including schools, organic farms, public parks, and residential yards. Global Good News service views this news as a sign of rising positivity in the fields of environment and government, documenting the growth of life-supporting, evolutionary trends.

The ruling also cited the state's 'woefully deficient' analysis of the cumulative danger of increasing the more than 150 million pounds of pesticides already being used in California each year. ...
