ORANGE INDUSTRY $$$BILLIONS AND THOUSANDS OF JOBS JUST IN 2013 AND IN A FEW MORE YEARS MAY HAVE WIPED OUT THE WHOLE INDUSTRY...CAN YOU SAY CUTS IN RESEARCH $$$ ONLY ADDS TO THIS INDUSTRY'S DEMISE...BLITZER SHOWED THE TINY WINGED ASIAN INSECT THAT WAS DISCOVERED IN FL. IN 2006 THAT CAUSES GREENLEAF DESEASE THAT CREAT DISFIGURED FRUITS, KILLS THE TREES AND IT IS NOW IN EVERY ORANGE GROWING COUNTY IN THE STATE...IT SEEMS SINCE THE FEMALE LIVES ONLY TWO MONTHS AND CAN LAY 800 EGGS IN THAT TIME SPRAYING HAS NO EFFECT AND MUCH MORE RESEARCH MUST BE DONE BEFORE ALL OF THE ORANGE TRES DIE OUT...
AND, SOMETHING WE TEND TO OVER LOOK ALONG WITH THE ORANGE GROWERS COME TOSE WHO MAKE THE BOXES THE FRUIT IS PUT IN, DRIVER'S ADS, OUR LOCAL MARKETS AND MANY OTHER JOBS IN BETWEEN FOR US TO GET A DRINK OF ORANGE JUICE...
WE NEED A UNITED STATES OF AMERICA TO BE ABLE TO TRY AND PREVENT SOME OF THESE NATURAL DISASTERS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. (NUP/SMILE)
