In small farming communities across California, children are dying. Birth defects--open spines and missing limbs--are common. And childhood cancer is 1200 percent above the national average. The cause: the 8 million pounds of unnecessary toxic pesticides used on table grapes each year- pesticides that the corporate growers refuse to stop using despite the rising loss of human life.
Cesar Chavez and a host of celebrities, farmworkers and parents show us, as consumers, how we can fight back against these oil based poisons.
