080 : Chemicals, Toxins and Pesticides (oh my!) With Dr. Joe Schwarcz

Subscribe: RSS

As an organic gardening enthusiast, I get a lot of questions from viewers and listeners about chemicals, poisons and toxins, so I thought I would do an episode on this topic, and luckily for us, Dr. Joe Schwarcz was kind enough to field all my questions! Have a listen as Dr. Joe educates us about these terms, and then breaks down all the chemical constituents in the products that I sometimes use in my garden.

If you have any questions for Dr. Joe, you can email them to joe.schwarcz@mcgill.ca. If you are interested in learning more about the Office of Science and Society at Mcgill University, check out their website at mcgill.ca/oss.
