STOP SPRAYING OUR FORESTS
The long delayed Report on Glyphosate from the NB CMOH, has been released, and its bland conclusions are that human health risks can be reduced if label restrictions are properly followed. This is in startling contrast to the World Health Organization, WHO, that has named it a “probable carcinogen”. Who to believe ?
Several countries , such as France, Italy, Sweden and the Netherlands argue for a complete ban on its use in forestry and agriculture. Closer to home, both Quebec and Vermont have banned herbicide use in their Crown Forests. This has created hundreds of jobs using man-crews for thinning.
On August 10, You can hear firsthand how glyphosate is affecting our forests, our wildlife - and us. Please join us.
The evening program includes:
- a film - THE TAINTED FOREST
- ROD CUMBERLAND, retired DNR Wildlife Biologist
- PETER GILBERT, co-organizer, STOP SPRAYING NB campaign
SALMON MUSEUM, DOAKTOWN
WED. August 10, 7 PM - doors open 6.30 PM.
