Javafit Coffee Business Opportunity

The same chemicals (DDT for example) that have “”killed”" lakes and streams in coffee producing areas of Latin America and elsewhere, are still used by workers today, frequently without a basic understanding of the harm that they are doing to the environment, to themselves and to their families. The misuse of pesticides typically stems from the workers’ inability to interpret directions and warnings relating to these harmful chemicals.
Insufficient access to education has left them illiterate and at the mercy of compounds that cause respiratory arrest, cancer, birth defects and many other disabling and life threatening illnesses. In addition, workers are rarely outfitted with protective gear that might provide them with even a small measure of protection against these pollutants.
The use of toxic chemicals is not only hazardous to the workers and their families, but also to the environment that they rely on to sustain themselves. The use of harmful chemicals on locally-grown crops has a direct impact on their quality of life. Their land should provide them with food for their families, water for drinking and a playground for their children. Deforestation, soil erosion and habitat loss combined with agricultural chemical pollution leave behind an environment that is lifeless, polluted and barren.
