Quebec says NON to pesticides

[Guest guest]

Quebec has passed the toughest rules in North America regarding common gardening

pesticides. In a move that has thrilled environmentalists and health advocates,

the provincial government has asked its citizens to go back to the traditional

ways of gardening and has banned 210 lawn and chemical products from store

shelves. " This bold action sets a standard for excellence that other governments

ignore at their peril, " said Warren Bell, an association board member of the

Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment.
