I mean it’s great for the people of California but if we would post every single pesticide and every herbacide getting banned for every place in the world this community is going to see a lot of content. Downvote me all you want, but this stuff has been banned (as the title says) in over 70 countries already. California is not even the first US state to ban it. Again this is great news for the wellbeing of the people in California but in the bigger picture this is not really news. Sorry to be a partypooper.
California has an insanely huge population and also gdp.
As of 2025, California’s gross domestic product (GDP) is $4.251 trillion, making it the largest state economy in the U.S. and the fourth largest in the world.
If anything, if we’re going to be jerks and say what locale deserves to be posted about and which doesn’t, I think most of those 70 other countries have less standing to be posted about.
If the fourth largest economy on planet earth banning a widely used toxic chemical isn’t news, almost nothing is.
