CleanTechnica: Those Denying Climate Crisis Ignore that Moderate Climate Migration Is Freaking Them Out
Itâs the #1 issue for many Americans â stopping immigration from Latin America. However, as Mike Barnard points out, a lot of this immigration is the result of climate disruption where the immigrants are coming from (including the societal problems that come from climate disruption), but many of those same people donât believe in the findings of thousands of climate scientists and donât see that climate disruption is going to continue growing the number of people escaping horrible situations and trying to find refuge in the United States.
In actuality, one of the best ways to combat high levels of immigration from Latin America (if thatâs what you want) would be to make countries south of the US safer, more climate resilient, and more economically stable. However, that doesnât fit into simplistic logic that is much easier to understand (even if wrongly) and support. âWhy canât we just build a massive wall on our southern border? Doesnât that solve our problem?â

The research revealed that pesticides penetrated the apple peel and pulp layers, thus outlining that washing is inadequate.
Although, once the peel and initial pulp layer were removed; pesticides decreased significantly.
