According to the EPA, it applies about a half million tons of pesticides, 12 million tons of nitrogen, and 4 million tons of phosphorus fertilizer to crops in the continental United States every year. That makes the fertilizer industry a double threat to the climate. That was—and still is—a major oversight. Big Ag is a major polluter.
