Aren pesticides only a problem in areas where the chemicals are actually applied?
No, pesticide particles can be carried thousands of miles via wind, rain, snow, or surface water. Today virtually all human beings contain some organochlorine pesticide residues in the fatty tissues of their bodies. Even seals in the Antarctic – thousands of miles from where pesticides are used – have DDT residues in their bodies.
