Indiscriminate application of pesticides is a bad idea

3 stars

Speaks volumes on the danger of reactionary use of pesticide and herbicide—especially understanding the context of its publication. Would definitely consider researching more on its impact. All in all an enjoyable if somewhat depressing read.
