These pics were taken in June 2005 .... approximately 3 miles to the east of Oswald lake. The area is midway between Timmins and Chapleau. |
Imagine a cigarette filter ... and now imagine that as the earth ... |
For the first several hoots on the cigarette, the filter protects the smoker .. |
Eventually the filter leaches ... And then for a long time after, the filter continues to leach ... |
|
|
|
|
So even if we cleaned up our act today ... the filter would still leach for decades .... if not centuries.... |
|
How is it possible that we really NEED to use herbicides in this case? |
Given that there are so many unemployed in the North ... who could manually graze or guide grazing animals ... |
