Efeito dos agrotóxicos sobre a saúde humana e ambiental

Abstract

This booklet aims to educate the public about the consequences of pesticide use, highlight the ways humans are exposed, and emphasize the importance of choosing safer foods, such as those produced through agroecological farming. The complex relationship between pesticides and transgenic seeds, as well as human exposure through food, including ultra-processed products, underscores the need for a more cautious approach and stringent regulation. Social awareness plays a vital role in promoting more sustainable agricultural practices and in advocating for and protecting the health of the population.
