>but the chance that the scientists with a complete other opinion other as
yours all are wrong is very small.
Ghislain, it serves no purpose to exaggerate or to put words in other's
mouths. No one is saying that the studies that found sublethal effects
from neonics in the lab were wrong. They would have found similar effects
no matter which pesticides they studied!
The question is whether those studies apply to real-life situations. It's
not about being right or wrong--it's about making registration decisions
based upon the data from good field experiments and practical experience.
There are damn few scientists who have stated that actual field studies
found that neonics are causing problems for bees.
