| Comment | The San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District’s report on
agricultural burning is riddled with lies, false assumptions,
misleading comparisons, and dishonest arithmetic. Their
smokescreen, figuratively and literally, protects oldtime ag
practices at the expense of public health.
When my second grader moved to Fresno, he had perfect lungs. Now,
twelve years later, he has serious asthma. Endless ag burning
creates tiny particles that poison us all.
Ag burning was supposed to stop in 2003. Now ag burning is
supposed to stop in June, 2010. Please don’t give them yet another
free pass. For the sake of public health, please stop ag burning
at long last.
Sincerely,
Stuart Develasco
Fresno
