we should enback on organic farming as to save the environment

this is a homble and genttle call to all farmers and other supporters of farming around the world to please enback on organic farming and avoid inorganic farming so as to save the environment for our current generation and even those unborned generations.
the use of chemicals for farming purposes around the world especially in developing countries around the world is no way helpful but rather causing more problems which are far beyond the reach of these developing nations. therefore, if we care about the safety of the environment and those developing nations we claim to be helping then, this is the time now that we should stop promoting inorganic farming and promote organic farming.

I am an environmental health journalist, and recently I was given a piece to work on regarding the fact that you are more likely statistically to conceive a child who will develop a birth defect in the spring or summer than in any other months. A strange coincidence that also the highest levels of agrochemical use is also in this season.
I was inspired to share a few tidbits of information due to your comment that we need to switch to organic farming in order to protect unborn generations. This is particularly fitting, because studies are now showing that agrochemicals are polluting our ground water and making it more likely that the unborn child will have adverse developmental effects.
So....intensive chemical laden agricultural does not just affect OUR health and the health of our ecosystems, but also the health and quality of life of our unborn children.
