Description
Toxic pesticides are over-used in North Carolina and around the world, polluting our food, water and our bodies. Toxic Free NC fights pesticide pollution in North Carolina by advocating for common-sense alternatives that protect our health and environment. We are an independent 501(c)3 non-profit organization -- North Carolina’s only organization working to put people before pesticides.
Our Goals
Toxic Free NC’s one simple goal is to get rid of pesticide pollution, in our water, our food and our bodies. We work together with those who care about the environment and our health, to:
* Educate people across North Carolina about pesticide hazards and common-sense alternatives;
* Watchdog the government agencies that regulate pesticides. We need a system that values people over corporate profits; and
* Change the way our communities view and use toxic chemicals, especially where people are at greatest risk from pesticide contamination. We help people understand their own power and find the skills to make their own communities safer.
