A useful historical primer and a call to arms, The War on Bugs charts how Americans have grown "comfortable" with pesticides and synthetic fertilizers over the last two centuries. The book is also an attempt to "rekindle" the spirit of classic exposés such as The Jungle, Upton Sinclair's novel about early-20th-century meatpacking in Chicago; and Silent Spring, by Rachel Carson, which led to the ban of the pesticide DDT in the United States.

The port and the company have now entered into a preliminary lease agreement for the port's Terminal 5, which Billiton will use to build a potash export facility on.
