Pesticides are common in our everyday lives and one particular group of pesticides, known as neonicotinoids or neonics, have become widely used across the world. Although they were initially hailed for their effectiveness and targeted action, understanding of their risks and damaging effects has since made neonicotinoids a highly controversial topic.

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. 

Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you, 

and the storms their energy,
 while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
