Children At Risk From Pesticides, School Bans Debated (Huffington post)
When they started feeling woozy barely an hour into their batting practice,
Alan Gorkin and his son Tristan, then 12 years old, didn’t think too much of
it. But as they packed up to leave the grassy field across the street from
Tristan’s school in Wilton, Conn., they spotted a little yellow sign warning
that more than spring was in the air: The field had been sprayed with
pesticides the day before.
“Parents should have a choice over whether their kids are exposed to
pesticides or not,” says Gorkin, who manages an organic farm in the area.
Back home, his and Tristan’s symptoms subsided a couple of hours later. That
was a year ago, a few months after the Connecticut state legislature’s ban of
pesticides on elementary and middle school grounds took effect. Unfortunately
for the Gorkins, they had unwittingly chosen to play on the wrong side of
Danbury Road — at a city baseball field a mere 200 yards east of the school’s
pesticide-free property.
