These things happen …

David Low (PhD), Australian Pollution Research Network:

‘Does this scene look unlikely? Actually, we found that the spraying of cancer-causing glyphosate and PFAS boosted herbicides onto children’s play areas is standard practice at Melbourne’s City Of Monash. The finding is discussed in a new report researched by students from Monash University’s Biosciences Department.

This reckless practice needs to be halted immediately to prevent further harm to children and expectant mothers using parks and gardens in Australia.’
