It’s not manufactured any more, but that’s probably because they ran out of bugs. The main problem is that when we take all these drugs and artificially modified stuff we don’t think about the effect it may later have on the environment and us.

Yes fish, what’s happening to them and maybe to us just is not right!!!

And affects the fish.

Because of the water cycle and the fact that what goes around comes around some scientists are starting to worry about the effect ...
