1760s

In Colonial America under the rule of King George in England, tyranny was rearing its ugly head with the passing of several of the tax acts including the currency act and stamp act imposing taxes on the colonies and creating increasing tension. The British would impose martial law in the later part of the decade to impose their mighty power over the colonist. The Seven Years War, a global conflict known in America as the French and Indian War, officially begins when England declares war on France. However, fighting and skirmishes between England and France had been going on in North America for years.

New Tests Reveal 70% of Fruits and Veggies are Contaminated with Toxic Chemicals

6 years ago

Despite the false propaganda of pesticide and herbicide producers who claim agricultural chemicals disappear after being sprayed on crops, a new research project from the Environmental Working Group has found that 70% of U.S. fresh produce is contaminated with pesticide chemicals.
