Man-made pesticides have been thoroughly disrupting our environment since World War II. While it may be true that the concept did succeed in its first few decades, in time their chemicals not only made tougher and more resistant bugs, it has also poisoned a lot of plants that fell victim to the chemical-enriched sprays that hogged the plants air.

In case anyone was wondering, I’m a “Peace Patroller”:
You are a Peace Patroller, also known as an anti-war liberal or neo-hippie. You believe in putting an end to American imperial conquest, stopping wars that have already been lost, and supporting our troops by bringing them home.
Neo-hippie. Whoa.
And if you don’t like it, get your own server.
