The Impact of Chemicals on Health and Agriculture
On this Soil Sisters radio hour, we unpack our shared frustrations about the overwhelming presence of chemicals in daily life and their health and environmental implications. The conversation explores the impact of synthetic fabrics, chemicals in sunscreens, and processed foods. We also address broader issues like urban sprawl and the decline of farmland, advocating for regenerative agriculture as a viable solution. We emphasize the importance of asking for help, creating community among farmers, and shifting to mindful methods of preserving agricultural landscapes and improving quality of life. This episode encapsulates the farming community's emotional and practical challenges and the importance of conscious consumerism.
This conversation originally aired on 107.9 KLKT Radio Lockhart.
