Default Toronto to ban pesticides

If anyone wonders if what the " greeenies " say is true that "you can keep
a healthy, virtually weed-free lawn without the use of pesticides", you
should take a drive through Toronto. The truth of the matter is that if
you simply fertilize a lawn and don't treat the weeds the weeds will
eventually take over.


I don't know why anybody cares about their lawn being perfect... there are
much bigger things to life than making sure your lawn is the greenest it
can be. Banning pesticides is fine by me... the less poison that goes into
the ground, the better. As for no evidence of harm to humans, well, I
think you have to admin that our environment has tons more chemicals pumped
into it than in the past, hence the reason cancer rate is always on the
rise.
