Double
Standard
To the editor:
I am deeply concerned about the policy of the U.S. government which continues to allow the export of certain pesticides to lesser-developed countries, even though we have outlawed the use of these highly dangerous products in the U.S.
This double-standard for ecological and health concerns abroad must be challenged and corrected if we are to protect the environment for all humankind.
I wish to ask for the support of your newspaper, through editorial or news coverage, in focusing attention on this most critical issue.
As a member of the National Audubon Society, I am pleased to tell you that our organization is prepared to provide you with background on this issue. Please write: Communications Office, 950 Third Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10022.
