Sudden insecticides something bad was keen to hush up they wanted to keep it secret they didnt want to publicize something which would be damaging for the company and made clear the city by the end was to stop the debate so they could carry on making money it was. A decent sector science known as near nick is annoying to have earned billions for the company and case of placing an innings over ethics and certainly by not knowing what isnt normal is breaking the laws concealing facts your guess should you shores and. How influential is the day a group and to the authorities fail to exercise proper oversight. But i think on. In southwest germany is a fertile region and hand to plenty of canola and corn fields because of carr who runs a beef on here. Hes passionate about what he does his bees are like part of a family. It really experienced any problems with pesticides until one spring day 12 years ago. And you passed had appeared in the rhine valley and was threatening to devastate the corn fields to save the harvest the authorities allowed the large scale use of near nicotine or its on me and next as they are also now. For me out there i could see the farmer sowing his corn and from one moment to the next it will be stopped flying it was perfect weather the bees were out origin everything was wonderful but as the farmer sowed his seed everything stopped although these in the air disappeared. Insecticide the seeds had been treated with resulted in a toxic dust cloud that killed 12000 b. Colonies in the region more than 500000000 being suffered an agonizing death. Flood the beltway worst of been for it was the world our worst case of be poisoning by legal means since be conservation began it was very frustrating and very emotional. It really got me down. It was about so it got so bad that i couldnt drive over to the beehives anymore every time i got near i was met by the stench of decomposing bees i just couldnt handle it anymore like stick it could. During planting some of the red pesticide coating the corn seeds rubbed off and was released into the environment. Just one of those a whats that that was sown this in the mice yes or corn seed stress with insecticide it beyond of the mice or cured with all what happened i think this is to order you see this red dust thats insecticide residue that is rubbed off the seeds and that was released into the air during plantation in the orbital governor stopped in the bees died instantly so what types of what if lookin of the that those that passed through the dust cloud yes. But the worst of it was that the dust settled on flowering plants so the remaining bee is then gathered contaminated pollen i mean you know the poor look a summer home. Rather than being sprayed on to crops like traditional pesticides mannix often applied in the form of a c. Dressing the seed coated with insecticide is then drilled into the ground using a seed planted the toxins are affected from the root to the entire plant as a grows making it i mean to pests both in the ground and the field. The stage about virgin birth investigated what had gone wrong and what i scar to the beekeepers amazement plane was placed on the mechanical feet planted. The Agriculture Ministry echoed bears official line saying that had the seeds been sewn correctly everything would have been fine minix were nevertheless banned for use on call in germany theyre still committed for other crops they are often 2200000 euros and fast tracked 8 but only on one condition for the beekeepers. In return i shall seed all existing and future claims to compensation to the state or bottom of it and their. Investigation the government of button button back had suddenly become. The offer from bay i was actually made by the Agriculture Department this long by the river bank or no bear it was state of bogs that they wanted to buy their way out of. It was touted as a marginal say the beekeepers because of what they were just covering themselves so there was a real push to settle the matter quickly they knew the bees had been poisoned otherwise it would have taken a lot longer to get the money to fish for many of the b. G. This except of the compensation and bear was left alone the ban on the a negative noise in corn wasnt a problem as they were still approved for many other crocs between 19022017 around 3700 tons of the agent was sold in germany alone and being they and other manufacturers like syngenta supplied various neo negative noids to more than 100. 00 countries and billions of euros scientists accuse the producers of making money at the expense of the environment. Because studies show that me a negative no its actually impact entire ecosystem. Dutch toxicologist 10 tennis has spent years studying the substances sold by Companies Like they are. He believes near negative no into the most toxic insecticide ever produced we met 10 of his at a clinic in the netherlands even though he was undergoing treatment from a man you know when we saw him late last year he agreed to speak to us. You name it. Seems vasilios noids are water soluble and relatively mobile in the ground this is a very very new dish so when it rains they are easily washed into the ground water and runoff water we zoom in for brightons you this means they affect the whole environment and are also absorbed by wild flowers and plants via their roots. When does. The entire landscape becomes toxic for insects. Theres a group of them so its fair to assume that this will result in mass insect deaths were being injected and if the insects disappear the ecosystem collapses. Thats why this is an ecological armageddon we are destroying the whole of nature. Cantenna has believed that near next to the main cause of insect deaths around the world and that via the food chain they are also responsible for the decline in the population of birds reptiles and amphibians and theres evidence that the harmful to humans too. So why are these insecticide still being sold. In 2018 the European Union did at least ban 3 of the 5 near naked to no its because of the threat to be nice but france had already banned one products containing the toxins back in 1909 it took 19 years for the e. U. To catch up so why did the french authorities act so much earlier. And paris we need scientists sure mark bomber time and a beekeeper only from him. They are instigate the 1900 band at the time being he was very experiencing mysterious dialysis for my town proves that the new year new get to know its produced by players were to blame. When the results were made public and to be protested the company was swift to respond. By yelling the very quickly they are started to exert pressure to get us to keep quiet in our example what they didnt want us to be keepers causing problems the book in more tentative and they are pseudonym for libel laws they are i dont produce honey from sunflowers or canola and i was acting in my capacity as head of the National Union of people this is what they sold me as a private individual and i got your lawyer defended us and we wonder and bear chose not to appeal the ruling but i wasnt the only 10. 00. The scientists also came under pressure the aim was to stop the debate so they could carry on making money when you think of it but the french government was also well known by the mass speed deaths and had commissioned a study. Or you were still giving before we even started our Research Bear began using the Agriculture Ministry to try to impose its methods and threshold values on us so that wasnt a good start if you looked at then when we got our results they came into the lab to check my analysis and find any errors they were desperate to find a mistake people told me but i havent made any big event and because we have proven that a toxin that poetry up even the blossoms of the plant you know if they were forced to accept our results your body that youre going to later i mentioned the pressure exerted by bayer did the french media that you did but yeah i dont receive 2 letters from a beer lawyer one addressed to me personally and one to the head of my institute you know they wanted to use their influence to force me to keep my mouth shut if they expected me a scientist to hide my results in order to protect their sales. But yes it would be best that easy but that wasnt his 1st brush with. Works for one of the top or such institutions in france it was back in the mid 1990 s. That he was commissioned by the french Agriculture Ministry to investigate the mass the deaths. Suspicion had fallen on me or nigga to know it 1st made by bayer called i made a cloak print. Says that at the request of the regional agricultural thirtys i am ponies were actively involved in the 1st study. No matter could go but i believe its normal for a company like bayer to be informed if one of its products is being investigated anymore thats your fate. All due to their feet but what absolutely isnt normal is when representatives of the Company Whose product is being assessed are not all of them the chairman and details of the approach to be taken including the financing and even the publication of the final results youll bucky heap and a headache sure division. There was certainly a lot of money at stake for bear the investigation began. These were sent on the one hand to fields of sunflowers treated with me or nicotine or its on the other 2 untreated fields for control purposes at least thats what drama obama time and his colleagues were told. They were only supposed to analyze the fields containing the bayer pesticides but later they realized that the control field was also contaminated with insecticides. Called youll carry it you know we scientists complained when we realized that the control fields have been treated with fungus eyes and other insecticides have a good for he that they dont think he did it just isnt normal for an experiment of this loving all thats all the kitty. You did a good but the Management Committee for the study ignored our complaints by order knew it legal to your thats a good beat it beat it out of seeking a levy instead the results of this comparative study which we now know were worthless were taken as proof that a medical oprah is harmless or b. S. You could you do eat what is a big. Suddenly they as insecticides appeared beyond suspicion any possibility of a ban had been dismissed for now at least. But dont want time and his colleagues at the institute then carried out their own study on behalf of the beekeepers this time but it was not involved and the results were staggering. Level them all play about history to give it you were able to prove that everything relevant to the be of is a big whether it was a corn sunflowers the ball and a director water who clean that everything was going to. Im unable to i mean yeah he unicode you know even if you look within the levels of toxins in the open countryside were so high that they were sufficient to either kill the b. S. For at least cause great long term problem is to harbor she said. In 1909 france then banned the use of nigga to know its but initially only for some plants that wasnt enough for the big as. They wanted a blanket ban on all me and they get annoyed so i hired the services of a paris lawyer but not for. He took up the case against pay and other manufacturers. Eventually it went to the considered town and branches highest court for administrative cases. Full realize the companies had exploited weaknesses in the licensing system to get their products on the market leagues dogma that european directives refer to whats known as the hazard quotient. This quotient is exceeded the manufacturer is obliged to carry out a field experiment under realistic conditions to prove that the product is not harmful. To your head also that we discovered that this control experiment which was obligatory in order to gain approval it never took place. If the tests had been carried out as european regulations dictated these products would never have been authorized and i read it if it i mean its in part facts to bear no force persistence that france became the 1st country in the world to ban the use of all near nicotine or its in 2018. In germany meanwhile they have continued to earn well it from the insecticides mannix were used on many different crops as a panacea for all pests. The discoveries in france didnt appear to well that the German Authorities even though beekeepers here complained of heavy losses but a hate figure was until recently president of the European Beekeepers Association he told us of his organizations relief when germany finally announced a study on a declining big population but the relief was short lived just thought we realized that the initiative only began once the threat was perceived of germany having to adopt the same stance as france frequent there was clearly great concern that the insecticides could be banned here too. Was the industry looking to preempt that move. It would appear that that was the reason why they and another next maker syngenta took part in the study author hayflick i soon realised something was very wrong you dont see our jobs every year there was an annual report and every year the findings would go through the media. The wrong might which causes honeybee deaths is really terrible. But we found no crabs with pesticides and if it was like a Public Relations coup for them obviously we became increasingly critical of how the whole project was structured with the methods they were using they wouldnt have found any link between pesticides and honeybee deaths anyway countries thats been a dobie other manics have nothing to do with the mass being deaths that was the apparent finding that the find Public Opinion right up until the disaster in prescott in 2008 the industry have put huff a 1000000 euros into the be monitoring project womens if you can assume just when you look at how the project was financed its pretty obvious im the one who pays the piper calls the tune and towing the german be monitoring project was financed almost entirely by the insecticide makers of. The Beekeepers Association walked out of the project in protest but by this point questions were also being raised about whether near negative no in town not just peace but other wildlife to. With come to me an expert tanika gardens where we meet spanish toxicologist francisco sanchez. He conducted a major study on the annex that attracted global interest. So when you published your be in the beginning of this year what was the conclusion that we found that in this in the countries where this has been studied which is mostly european americans but also countries around the world are going to see a more japan 40 percent of the species of insects declining and among those one 3rd of them are really climbing abruptly and they have threatened with extinction. Eaten says near niggas know its play a key role in that trend and they dont just kill insects they damage entire ecosystems. By uproot that in japan where he studied irrigation rice fields oprah 2 year period. These ecosystems are home to my new twitter fleece known as daphnia as well as crayfish and japanese rice fish called my dhaka. One day the rice farmers noticed that much of this wildlife was dying apart from the water fleas the crayfish were especially hard hit a laboratory achieving university was asked to investigate the research as soon found the culprit the same near negative knowing that it killed the beings in france we never had a list of 7 very curiously in the middle of the well in the in the medical some st it was even that lovely where all absolutely all a 100 percent of the fish were contaminated with but also on but our site and of course we put it down to the fact that. He only got a night and he was the new system so its all species were sensitive to the insecticide except. So the hole was then used wealthy so the governor was an anomaly and they are fortunate factory. Is that this anomaly had been used as the reason to say that this insect is i was say for the moment when it was a complete anomaly. The poison did not kill the tiny whoosh of flames but it did effectively exterminate much larger species that weaken their means system so severely that they were easy prey for parasite. The results were indisputable or so such as by a thought but he hadnt reckoned with a form of pay a scientist who would actually help to develop me in x. The day i explained the results or the 1st year measure course of studies to the whole group and to the faculty. At the end he just couldnt understand the resource himself man hears me so whether you want to do with these results and i said work the 1st thing i want to do is to publish them because he stands in nobility and he really needs. Didnt know what to say he was speechless and said do you really want to publish it yes i think its important to let the world know whats happening but they wanted to keep it secret they didnt want to publicize something which would be damaging for the company. The toxicologist says the laboratory then terminated his contract but he published the results anyway. The events he witnessed indicate that at least one bayer scientists knew right back in 2004 about the kind of devastation that the air look at a noise can cause an ecosystems. From our research its clear that bear tried for decades to provide any kind of universal ban on near negative noise. In france the company sought to intimidate beekeepers and scientists and played a leading role in a questionable study on b. Mortality that exonerated the insecticides. In germany insecticide makers funded have been monitoring project it led to the widespread belief that ne a negative noise had nothing to do with mass b. Deaths. And in japan it would appear bayer employees even sought to suppress the publication of a crucial study scientists and proven atlantic it annoyed were responsible for the collapse of entire ecosystems. So what does bear say to all these allegations that Research Results we spent weeks trying to communicate with the company and then denied entry to its premises. Bev representatives refused to talk to us on camera are written questions went unanswered instead the company criticized what it described as unfair treatment by the media and many centers for this general statement. He remains convinced that the use of near nick it annoyed to say for humans and the environment provided be reduced responsibly and in accordance with the instructions for use. Nearly. Its annoying to only kill pests were told. By a studys claim that not even long term use is harmful to be other insects or fish as for the allegation that bay employees sought to manipulate other studies not comment on return to dutch toxicologist hank telecasts he spent years studying these pesticides during that time he discovered 2 studies carried out by day of the findings of which are astounding and one of best scientists describes the effects of the 1st near nigga to knowledge of the nervous system of the species of flight is a fact i described as a reversible. Emitter cloak produced the 1st highly effective insecticide that works on the principle of almost completely blocking receptors in a way that is virtually irreversible. One of the bayer studies was completed in 1901 so one year before the product was granted the right approval when tenet is confronted by it with these studies and was taken aback by the response. Vets the mayor now claims that the blocking of the receptors in the nervous system is reversible so you still are contradicting themselves. If the effect is reversible it depends on the concentration and so you can define a threshold level or govern. If the walking is irreversible you can find a threshold level and so the effect is cumulative zooms. Severe. The virginal beta study is key because if the toxins remain in the nervous system that can lead today even if the insects were only exposed to a small dose so if they knew that why did the company take no action in your cloak emitter closer to loan generates annual turnover of nearly a 1000000000 euros think of stuff its so i think that led them to just claim something so they could keep selling this pesticide. And. If they consider the impact is substance has they would have had to take it off the market mark. We also asked the bayer group about the studies carried out by it and scientist and once again the company declined to comment. Theres enough evidence to prove the dangers of the annex but authorities have either been slow to respond or taken no action at all if we take the European Union for example a look at how pesticides are authorized is highly ready. First the active ingredient is approved for you white usage the manufacturer can apply and any Member States france was chosen for the 1st knee or negative. But only the manufacturers test the substance for toxicity and environmental impact. The authorities just do the paperwork. In germany best the federal office of Consumer Protection and food safety along with 3 other agencies none of them test products. So everything depends on studies carried out by the manufacturer as the European Beekeepers Association points out its a system that all too easy to manipulate. Just think on the manufacturer can intervene at all levels dont even get a say in how any prescribed tests are structured for tests that. They say of us done goes up until now its also been the case that the study that a manufacturer commissioned or undertook remained a corporal see different times does. The advantage for they couldnt be published on and damn it also steamed me so no one else could tell what the licensing authorities actually checked. We had to drop reproof tot just matters that makes life easy for the authorities because no one can really question their decisions and try to replace roku from as well as 10 its a very very convenient relationship between industry and regulatory authorities would you rather. To this day it remains a distinctly sickly system what if independently poetrys were to carry out tests prior to approval instead of these powerful Chemicals Companies wed like to discuss this with a German Agriculture minister yulia kleckner for weeks we tried to get an interview when we finally got an appointment we were told that we couldnt use our camera and that the minister had no time for us instead we received a statement saying that the ministry was committed to continuing to develop the approval and licensing procedures on the basis of the latest developments in science and technology and yet and e. U. Directive aimed at tightening the approval regulations for pesticides has been stalled for years but germany among those standing in the way. Critics like french lawyer been awful say is the result of successful lobbying by manufacturers like they are. Looking for but now youve to search it a lot we mustnt be naive of. The goal and purpose of these companies is to make money with these products your supporters dont even know them are good and thats what they do with all means at their disposal thats normal. Social culture not much. All of all. I know among what isnt normal is breaking the law concealing facts playing for time. Do i need or dont in order to prevent products that are harmful from being taken off the market would you be built all sticky so next year. Even though the evidence is clear. To no into still one of the most widely used insecticides in the world. They are on the one hand has influenced scientific studies and intimidated and seem just critics while on the other lacks licensing rules and all floridians who have ignored deeply troubling studies have prevented meaningful controls and meaningful changes will Mean Companies being monitored more closely and warnings he did.
