EU says pesticide giants breached law over withheld brain toxicity studies

https://www.euractiv.com/section/agriculture-food/news/eu-says-pesticide-giants-breached-law-over-withheld-brain-toxicity-studies/

Agrochemical giants Bayer and Syngenta are in breach of legal obligations for withholding information on the brain toxicity risk of pesticides, the European Commission said on Tuesday (18 July).

To paraphrase "Reality can be so inconvenient - let's ignore it and maybe it will go away".

On reading a #university level textbook about #developmental #psychology - what concerned me (though didn't surprise me) was what research was actually missing.

The phrase "air pollution" wasn't mentioned once in the whole textbook. #AirPollution

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuint.2019.104580 "Age appears to play a relevant role in air pollution-induced #neurotoxicity, with growing evidence suggesting that air pollution may contribute to #neurodevelopmental and #neurodegenerative #diseases" - That means air pollution seriously harms #children's #health. Who knew? that inhaling the #chemicals emitted after burning something could be so dammed harmful? (sarcasm - as I've been writing this #### for decades)

So, what is the psychology that means (too many) psychologists have a habit of not talking about air pollution?

Could it be something quite simple? such as - people don't "like" the idea that their car's exhaust emissions, etc, are hurting their own children's health. #CogntiveDissonance
