English term or phrase: to boost the pesticide treadmill
***Food authority EFSA boosts pesticide treadmill***

http://www.gmwatch.org/news/latest-news/17199

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) chose the summer holiday ‘dead zone’ period to publish a protocol for the implementation of a major derogation (exemption) from Europe’s pesticide law. The derogation will allow dangerous pesticides that cause cancer, birth defects, and endocrine disruption to continue to be used in spite of the fact that they are due to be banned under the EU pesticides regulation 1107/2009.
