This review summarizes the detrimental effects of synthetic pesticides on human prosperity, including increased risk of diabetes, reproductive issues, neurological dysfunction, cancer, and respiratory problems. Additionally, we explore their harmful impact on the environment, including soil degradation, water pollution, loss of biodiversity, and ecosystem disruption. Our analysis highlights the need for sustainable agricultural practices and alternative pest control methods to mitigate the devastating effects of chemical pesticides. We emphasize the importance of prioritizing human health and environmental well-being over agricultural productivity and economic gains. The goal of sustainable agriculture is to feed the expending population while fanning profitably in an ecological sound regenerative way. In order to be sustainable, agriculture needs to be i) Technological feasible ii) Economical viable iii) Socially acceptable iv) Environmentally sound. If a cropping system requires large inputs of fertilizer that leak from the system to pollute ground water, drinking supplies and distant coastal fisheries, the system may be sustainable economically as the long-term supply of fertilizer is stable and the economic cost of fertilizer is easily borne by larger grain production but it is not sustainable environmentally or society, since it does not cover that cost of environmental damage or social costs. This review aims to stimulate further research and policy changes to address the pressing issue of pesticide misuse and promote a safer, more sustainable future.
