    Another coup for Rachel Carsons STEP CHILDREN . As everyone isdoubtless aware by now, on June 18 t h , 2008 , the province of Ontario joinedits sister province, Quebec, in selectively prohibiting, with extreme preju-dice, those pest control products used by the P ROFESSIONAL L A WN C A RE I N - DUSTRY and do it yourself homeowners. These prejudicial regulations comeinto effect on April 22 n d , 2009 . Coincidentally, E ARTH D A Y .

    Golf clubs have been provided with an exception status. Farmers have been provided with an exception status. Forestry workers have been provided with an exception status. Mosquito applicators have been provided with an ex-ception status. Under certain conditions, even sports field managers have beenprovided with an exception status. Unfortunately, the P ROFESSIONAL L A WN C A RE I NDUSTRY is specifically targeted commercially by the Ontario C OS - METIC P ESTICIDES B AN A CT .

    Unlike the Quebec G REEN S PACE I NDUSTRY , which fought the prohi- bition of pest control products to the bitter end with exhausting legal represen-tation before the courts, in the end, the Ontario industry, for all intents andpurposes, stood by and did nothing.

    The Ontario government is wrong. The Quebec government is wrong. Just as Rachel Carson and her stepchildren were wrong aboutDDT. Just as the world governments were wrong to prohibition of pestcontrol products DDT .

    This very sad event forces has forced us to react with the words of theactor Charlton Heston in the 1968 film P L A N E T O F T HE A PES . At the endof the film, our society had destroyed itself, and Heston was understandably upset.

    His reaction was

    >

    Well, the ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT has finally done it. They aretrying to BLOW UP the G R E E N S PACE I NDUSTRY . We should be just asupset as Heston. God damn the Ontario government. (And Quebec.) Goddamn the ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT . The ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT is on the verge of BLOWING UP the G R E E N S PACE I NDUSTRY .

    We think that the manufacturing and the turf maintenance industries

    should simply sue the daylights out of both the governments of Ontario andQuebec. They need to be taught a lesson once and for all. Otherwise, some-day, these MANIACS will completely destroy the entire modern G R E E N S PA C E I NDUSTRY , in both Canada and the United States. All of this becauseof POLITICIZED decisions based on ignorance, with a pretext of protectinghealth and environment.

    Within these two provinces, we find fine examples of the out of controlenvironmentally fanatical MANIACS disguised as environmentalists, politi-cians, doctors, and nurses.

    Charest. Fucile. Gerretsen. McGuinty. Shapero. No doubt, the Sierra Club and David Suzuki were meddling with the A P E LIKE minds of thesepeople.

    (We should try avoid the temptation of making more references to P L A N E T O F T HE A P E S . Oops ! We just did !)

    By the way, the G OL F C OURSE I NDUSTRY should not feel too smugabout its exception status in Ontario or Quebec. The ENVIRONMENTALMOVEMENT knows that golf clubs also use the hated COSMETIC pest con-trol products ! Moreover, the ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT , for the most part, despises the G OL F C OURSE I NDUSTRY just as much as the P RO- FESSIONAL L A WN C AR E I NDUSTRY .

    Lets not forget the official position of the rabid Sierra Club > .

    The G OL F C OURSE I NDUSTRY will benefit only from a temporary respite. They sho uld not fe el safe f rom thes e MANIACS !

    J UNK SCIENCE was used by Miss Carson and her STEP CHILDREN to attain her ideological motives and her obsession to explain her fate withdeath by breast cancer. Most of her claims using scientific data, research, andanalyses, were bogus. Especially about DDT.

    Her infamous book S ILENT S P R I N G has manipulated public opinionfor decades many of its claims often could not be justified under thescrutiny of SOUND SCIENCE . A situation very familiar when scrutinizingthe ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT of today.

    With S ILENT S PRING as the ultimate guide to JUNK SCIENCE , theemerging environmental movement began to use POLITICIZED SCIENCE todiscredit and eliminate one of the most impressive chemicals of the TwentiethCentury DDT. It triumphed since politics outweighed scientific fact. It prevailed when measures were taken that often had little basis in fact or sci-ence. The ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT used S I L E N T S P R I N G to influencepublic policy.

    The reason why we must talk about Miss Rachel Carson now is becauseher STEP CHILDREN , those who have followed in her footsteps, are continueto employ the same time honoured strategies of intimidation and scare mongering. Her most famous STEP CHILDREN at this time are Al Gore andDavid Suzuki.

    In 1962 , Houghton Mifflin released S I L E N T S PRING . This book was a poetic and persuasive text that alarmed and excited the reading public when it

    was first published. One third of this book had initially been released in a three part series in T HE N EW Y ORKER (June 16 t h , June 23 r d , and June30 t h , 1962 ). In September, 1962 , Houghton Mifflin released the full ver-

    sion of this book.

    As of 2007 , S ILENT S PRING is in its twenty ei gh th printing. Over te n mil lion c op ie s have been sold worldwide. More than th ir ty thousa ndcopies are reportedly sold each year. Not bad for a book of mos tly mi s information.

    Several documents regarding Miss Carson are worth reading. In 2002 ,Marjorie Mazel Hecht in 21 S T C ENTURY S C I E N C E & T ECHNOLOGY M AGAZINE summed up the DDT situation with the following prov ocat ive editorial.

    >>

    Even the author Michael Crichton ( 19422008 ) had entered the fray.He not only wrote books like S TATE OF F E A R and J URASSIC P A RK , he was also a scientist and researcher. In 2003 , Crichton made following star-tl in g revelations.

    >>

    One other document is also worth reading. In 1992 , Doctor J. GordonEdwards ( 19192004 ) published an article aptly entitled T H E L IES OF R A - C H E L C ARSON .

    The following is a concept that has provided a lot of fun and enter-tainment. In 2004 , popular author Michael Crichton ( 19422008 ) summedup the situation with the following excerpt from his wonderful book enti-tled S TATE OF F E AR

    < < < < Arguably, the greatest tragedy of the Twentieth Century was the removal of DDT. DDT was the best insecticide for the control of mosquitoes. Despite views to the contrary, noother products were as efficient, or as safe. Since the re-moval of DDT, it has been estimated that thirty to fifty mil-lion people have died unnecessarily from the effects of ma-laria. Sadly, removing DDT has killed more people than Hit-ler. Before the removal of DDT, malaria had become almosta minor illness, with only fifty thousand deaths per year throughout the world. > > > >

    Michael Crichton was always reliable about environmental issues.

    As mentioned by Crichton, and others, the people of the ENVIRON- MENTAL MOVEMENT has encouraged destructive policies that have led to the

    death of millions of people.

    They have killed more people than Hitler. They have killedmore people than Stalin. They have killed over half as many victimsas Mao.

    Some people, such as Paul K. Driessen, have accused the ENVIRON- MENTAL MOVEMENT of E C O MANSLAUGHTER .

    Lets look at the statistics.

    It is believed that malaria acutely afflicts more than 515 million peo-ple per year. Two thirds of all cases occur in Africa. Additionally, it causesmore than 1 million deaths per year, principally among children under theage of five years and pregnant women. It has been thirty seven years sincethe U.S. removal of DDT. The reader can do the math. (Thirty seven mil-lio n.) Some say that the malaria deaths may be as high as fif ty million.

    Incidentally, Nazi persecution and genocide killed an estimated nine toeleven million people (some say fifteen ). (Add to this estimate all of the

    war deaths, and you reach thirty five million. But, we digress.)

    The regime of Stalin reached twen ty mi lli on .

    Chairman Mao killed up to seventy si x mi ll io n by mass murders andpolicies leading to famine.

    What are the ultimate differences in the policies of Mao Zedong (Mao Tse tung) and Rachel Carson and her STEP CHILDREN ? Perhaps not much.

    We do not mean to say that that the ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT isresponsible for cold blooded murder. But, the policies of the ENVIRONMENTALMOVEMENT were /ar e cold blooded, and have yielded the same results as thegreat mass murderers of history.

    Miss Rachel Carson and her STEP CHILDREN may ostensibly taketheir place amongst the bloodiest tyrants of the Twentieth Century.

    Are they all roasting tog ethe r in the hottest fires of Hell ?

    We know we are going to take some heat on the concept of TheGreatest Mass Killers in Recent History .

    Everyone should bear in mind that, for decades now, the ENVI- RONMENTAL MOVEMENT has not have much of a sense of humour about the G R E E N S PACE I NDUSTRY .

    While working as a Public Affairs Spokesman, the principal author of thisdocument still remembers some of the verbal ASSAULTS launched against the G R E E N S PACE I NDUSTRY , such as turf herbicides causing >.

    (We used to joke that the only people without brains were the ones fabri-cating this kind of story.)

    If we can poke fun at Miss Carson and her STEP CHILDREN every once in a while, some of our detractors should LIGHTEN UP .

    By the way, here comes a fun, colour, mini poster of The Greatest Mass Killers in Recent History .

    This poster is meant to convey the following message.

    Rachel Carson and her stepchildren were wrong about DDT. Just asthe Ontario government is wrong about prohibiting pest control products.

    Enjoy the following poster.

    Force of Nature was launched for continuous transmission on the Internet on January 1 st, 2009. It is a se-ries of enewsletters destined for the Green Space Industry, the environmental movement, politicians,municipalities, and the media, nationwide across Canada, and parts of the United States. Force of Na-ture is produced in two parts. First. The Media Report itself that reports on the current events affectingthe future of the Green Space Industry.. Second. Independent Perspective., which is a running commen-tary, sometimes also of a more technical in nature.

    For ce of Nature is the brainchild of William H. Gathercole and his entourage. The opinions ex-pressed in these enewsletters, even though from an independent perspective, may not reflect those of everyone in the Gr een Space Indu stry, or Mr. Gathercoles many associates. Be warned ! Mr. Gather-cole and his team may sometimes be very irreverent and fearless with these enewsletters.

    William H. Gathercole holds a degree in Horticulture from the University of Guelph, and another pure andapplied science degree from McGill University. He has worked in virtually all aspects of the Green SpaceIndustry, including public affairs, personal safety, and environmental issues. Mr. Gathercole has been aconsultant and instructor for decades. Mr. Gathercole has been following the evolution of environmentalterrorism for over a quartercentury. His involvement in environmental issues reached a fevered pitch in the1990s, when he orchestrated, with others, legal action against unethical and excessive municipal regulationsrestricting the use of pest control products. ( i.e. the Town of Hudson. ) Although he can be accused of be-ing antienvironmentmovement, he is, in fact, simply a strong advocate for the Green Space Industry.However, this position has not precluded him from criticizing the industry itself. Nonetheless, his vastknowledge of our long journey with environmental issues is undeniab le. ( Hopefully ! ) For manyyears, Mr. Gathercole has been a contributing columnist for TURF & Recreation Magazine, Can-adas Turf and Grounds Maintenance Authority.

    All pictures contained in For ce of Na ture were found somewhere on the Internet. We believe that

    they are in the public domain, as either educational tools, industry archives, promotional stills, publicityphotos, or press media stock.

    Information presented in Force of Nature has been developed for the education and entertainmentof the reader. The events, characters, companies, and organizations, depicted in this document arenot always fictitious. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, may not be coincidental.
