James Green, The JFF report was not a scientific study in that it did not employ the scientific method.  However, the members of the JFF were scientists, and the report was based on science.  The report concluded that "Adequate data on potential harms that may be caused by seed company pesticide use to local Kaua‘i flora and fauna is currently unavailable." In addition, "Currently there is not enough information to conclude if pesticide use by the seed companies plays any role in the health of Kaua‘i’s residents."  In your opinion, the available data is adequate, and you have a right to your opinion.  However, it is contrary to the conclusions of the JFF.
