11:15 a.m. – NCAP
NCAP works to protect communities, inspire solu-
tions and reduce pesticide use. Our health and com-
munities are worth protecting from harm. A healthy
climate, clean air, water and soil are incalculable in
their value to all of us. Without them our very survival
is at risk. According to the Environmental Protection
Agency, more than 1 billion pounds of pesticides are
used annually in the United States. This includes
insecticides, herbicides, rodenticides, fungicides and
more. The phrase “Break the Billion” is a thread that
runs through all of NCAP’s work. It reminds us that
everything we do, small or large, to choose healthier
alternatives over pesticides leads to fewer pesticides
used and less risk and harm caused.
