There are different types of fertilizers, and some ways of replenishing nutrients to the soil are much better than others for the growth and nutrition of the plants and for the environment. One type of fertilizer is synthetic. These are the N-P-K fertilizers that only replenish the nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium, but not other nutrients and micro-nutrients that plants need. They may contain ingredients that pollute the environment. Another way to replenish nutrients and to develop good soil generally is to add compost and natural materials to the soil. This not only builds up the soil and replenishes the micro-nutrients as well as nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium and other nutrients, but is safe for the environment.

So, fertilizer may be considered bad because it does not replenish all the nutrients and micro-nutrients that plants need and it may pollute the environment.
