Pesticides Bad, Wackos Good

A renowned U.S. scientist who has documented fertility and
sex changes -- including decreasing penis size -- due to
environmental contamination says he wouldn't apply
pesticides on his own lawn.

Delivering a special series of lectures this week at the
University of Western Ontario, Louis Guillette has been
drawn into London's lawn-care debate during question
periods and talk-show interviews.

"The use of these compounds just for cosmetic reasons,
just because you don't want to make dandelion wine from
your yard or whatever, I think is inappropriate,"
Guillette, who is associate dean for research at the
University of Florida, said in a lecture yesterday at
UWO's Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry.

Based on his own scientific investigations, Guillette said
there's enough evidence pesticides put children, wildlife
and the ecosystem at risk.

"Just because you can go buy them at the local stores
doesn't meant that is appropriate use," he said.
