I had no idea what this was about until googling the city name. It is in British Columbia, Canada. Good, one city in the world has banned pesticides. Any others??? How about herbicides???? How about the persistent chemicals that are destroying soils and showing up in all sorts of water supplies??? Several years ago, I had a conversation with a soil scientist from Idaho that told me about how much of their soil has been sterilized by pesticide/herbicide use which killed the soils' natural worms, bacteria, and fungi.
Since the book "Silent Spring" there have been bans then new chemicals, then more bans and more chemicals, ad nauseam. While coal burning is spreading hundreds of toxins world wide.
