--001a113988b0241d5d052ae69722 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Gyphosate (roundup) going under radar despite the lethal impacts of amphibian larvae (ca 98% kill) from the surfactant used to get the pesticide across the plant's cuticle. Not supposed to be used near water courses but amphibians are in swampy woods. As naturalists, impacts on natural world are our major responsibility. Physicians (royal...Ontario. .forget the association) did take a stand against recreational and household usage of pesticide on the basis of human health risk. We can stand up for nature.
