A phrase that came up in this triggered my interest. Agro-toxin. A phrase almost unknown in the USA. I did a google search. got 48 results. All but I think three from outside USA.

Exploring this is an education from outside, Brazil, Canada, UK and more. The very last happens to be mostly about electrical power in Brazil.
