Focusing on Use of Our Current Sun

Here are the four postulates to sustainable energy production/use.     The sun is our sole sustainable energy source (PV, solar heat, wind, water, biofuels, etc). We live in a closed environmental system. It matters what we do here in our environment, Earth. Humans are very clever. If the two postulates above are followed as design constraints, we can move ...learn more

About  [Edit]

Pesticides are hazardous to human health and the environment, undermine local and global food security and threaten agricultural biodiversity.


Yet these pervasive chemicals are aggressively promoted by multinational corporations, government agencies, and other players in this more than $35 billion a year industry.


PANNA [Pesticide Action Network North America] works to replace the most hazardous pesticides with ecologically sound and socially just alternatives. As one of five PAN Regional Centers worldwide, we link local and international consumer, labor, health, environment and agriculture groups into an international citizens` action network. This network challenges the global proliferation of pesticides, defends basic rights to health and environmental quality, and works to insure the transition to a just and viable society.


PAN North America also provides a comprehensive database on pesticide toxicity, regulatory status and related subjects.


Other PAN Regional Centers include PAN Africa, PAN Asia/Pacific, PAN Europe and PAN Latin America.
