Really? Pesticides can harm babies?

I have to presume this is true. In fact, it seems so obvious that toxic chemicals would have negative impact on developing babies. I'll put aside, for now, that IQ testing is still not a completely reliable measure of one's mental capacity or capability. However, a seven point decline in the accumulated results is large - greater than 10%. This deserves attention and action. Sad, isn't it, that it is socially acceptable to favor a green lawn and a truck of produce over the well-being of our unborn. That really isn't so uncommon, is it?
