Bloomberg: ЕС поставляет в Нигерию запрещенные пестициды, вызывающие рак

Socity

Европейские компании поставляют в Нигерию запрещенные в ЕС пестициды, предположительно, вызывающие рак и неврологические заболевания. Об этом сообщает агентство Bloomberg.

«Существуют весомые научные доказательства связи между определенными химикатами, запрещенными ЕС, и развитием таких состояний, как рак и неврологические расстройства», - заявил Bloomberg специалист в области общественного здравоохранения американского Мичиганского университета Мухаммед Кабир Муса.

По данным некоммерческой организации Alliance for Action on Pesticides in Nigeria (AAPN), выступающей за постепенный отказ от высокоопасных пестицидов, более половины используемых в стране агрохимикатов представляют большую угрозу для здоровья человека. В Европе запрещены к продаже 40% из них. Среди поставляемых в Нигерию веществ - манкоцеб от компаний Bayer и UPL, а также атразин и паракват от Syngenta, запрещенные в ЕС. AAPN утверждает, что из-за воздействия пестицидов в Нигерии с 2008 по 2022 год погибли не менее 450 человек.

Bloomberg приводит историю местного фермера Абдуллахи Юсуфа. Его 12-летняя дочь умерла от лейкемии, которую местные врачи связывают с пестицидами. Девочка ела выращиваемые ее отцом овощи и фрукты, которые тот обрабатывал опасными химикатами, не подозревая об этом. В публикации говорится, что многие мелкие фермеры в Нигерии вынуждены использовать дешевые пестициды, не имея безопасной альтернативы.
