FiailnimhTá an grúpa timpeallachta MEAS Iarthuaisceart ag iarraidh ar dhaoine fiailnimh (weedkiller) a úsáid go spárálach. Is cosúil gur nós leitheadach é seo anois sna ceantair tuaithe áitiúla nuair a tchí muid stráicí móra talún agus imill bealtaí móra agus díogacha anois leis an dath gránna buí dóite i rith am samhraidh. Déarfadh muid gur leor an nimh seo a úsáid chun spraeáil a dhéanamh ar chosáin coise agus thart ar fhoirgnimh. Níor táirgíodh fiailnimh chun spraeáil a dhéanamh ar achair mhóra foscailte macasamhail páirceanna agus ar imill bhealtaí móra agus i ndíogacha. Ní amháin go ‘maraíonn’ an ceimiceán seo na ‘lustain/fiailí’ (bíonn na ‘lustain’ seo mar a thugtaí orthu, riachtanach do éiceachórais (ecosystems) áirithe) ach maraíonn sé fosta achan rud beo sa phíosa talamh a rinneadh spraeáil uirthi i. feithidí os cionn AGUS faoin talamh, an cuiteog uiríseal san áireamh. Má itheann éanacha nó ainmhithe beaga - macasamhail an dallóg fhraoigh - na feithidí marbh seo nach dtógfaidh siadsan an nimh fosta? Go bunúsach, ghnigh an fiailnimh an talamh a fhágáil lom agus neamhthorthúil. Tá imní orainn fosta go bhféadfaí tionchar a bheith ag an ‘gcleachtas’ seo ar an líon sileáin/beacha sa domhain. Tá beacha, mar shampla bumbóga, beacha tochailte chomh maith le beacha meala iontach tábhachtach d’fheirmeoirí agus daofa siúd uilig a bhíonn ag saothrú talún, mar is nasc ríthábhachtach iad idir na plandaí faoi bhláth agus an pailniú a bheir torthaí, glasraí agus barraí áirithe dúinn agus a bhfuil gá ag daoine leo chun maireachtáil. Níl aon chréatúr eile a dhéanann an obair ríthábhachtach seo. Tá na sileáin ar fud an domhain ag dul i léig agus sé ár mbarúil nach bhfuil an spraeáil den fiailnimh ag cuidiú leis an scéal. Ós rud é gur ceimiceán de dhéantús an duine é agus go bhfuil sé rangaithe mar ‘nimh’ d’fhéadfadh an fiailnimh tionchar a bheith aici ar shláinte ainmhithe agus daoine chomh maith. Measann muid nár chóir í a úsáid ach amháin mar an rogha deireanach agus chan mar dhóigh leisciúil chun achair mhóra talaimh a ‘ghlanadh’. Bain úsáid as fiailnimh go spárálach le bhur dtoil. www.meas-it.com
