colas banned??
by prashant on Aug 09, 2006 02:53 PM   Permalink

As always instead of trying to fix the core issue the government is giving a solution that will have no bearing on our health or the amount of unnecessary chemicals we intake unknowingly. No one should have any doubt that you would find the same level of pesticides and other chemicals in the bottles water you drink, in the vegatables and cereals that you eat. I am sure that if we test the food and beverages in any average restaurant in our country you would still end up with all these chemicals. I am no fan of the colas, but banning them will make no difference to our citizens.
The only way out is to regulate/ban all the fertilizers and pesticide use in our country. But I guess our rulers don't have the will or the energy to even think of that. We are still happy to use deadly chemicals and take banned medicines as we don't see any apparent danger. Ingnoance is not an alibi.
