While most of the developed world, including the USA historically, accept the preponderance of the evidence that a form of pesticides commonly referred to as neonics are harmful to bees and other pollinators, as well as birds and aquatic invertebrates (link, link), the US EPA, under the Trump administration through Scott Pruitt, is stalling to implement even the recommendations of its own scientists (link).
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
