Wow, 50 years! It was an incredible eye-opener for me and for many others. But as a society have we really learned the lessons or just attended to symptoms?
My compliments, encouragement and respect to you for carrying on.
Thanks, Roger.
Truthfully, I think we are in worse shape now than we were then. The pesticides have changed, but the problems have carried on.
