Suppose herbicides are illegal: now County/State have to hire 10x the workers and outfit them all with string trimmers ... which burn gasoline ... is the environment better off?
Maybe they should hire 50x the workers and give them all hand tools to cut the weeds? Now they need a fleet of vehicles to transport them to the worksite. Vehicles which burn gasoline.
Perhaps the string trimmers could be battery-powered and recharged from solar panels ... the manufacture of which involves large-scale environmental pollution ...
Why, it's almost as if the problem is really population density and lifestyle choice, with industry and chemicals merely supporting that decision.
