“As a
mother, I understand the importance of a healthy school environment
in which to educate our children. As an environmentalist,
I understand the need to eliminate the unnecessary use of
any toxic chemical. As EPA’s Administrator, I encourage all
schools to reduce the use of pesticides by adopting integrated
pest management.”

Browner, Administrator, US EPA, August 1993
