Where our forest is being sprayed this summer:
If you live in New Brunswick you can view a map to see where your forests are getting sprayed this year.
The map showing where the forests will be sprayed with herbicides during summer 2020 is now available.
Forestry companies spray large swaths of clearcuts with products containing glyphosate — a chemical linked to cancer and a slew of other health problems — beginning in August and continued through September.
The full 2020 spray map is available at forestinfo.ca, a partnership between government and the forestry industry. If you want to know if your community, favourite walking trail, or summer swimming hole is near a spray site you’ll have to zoom in on the map until herbicide spray zones appear.
Our team is poring over the map to help New Brunswickers identify the major spraying hotspots this summer. We will update this page with maps of concerning spraying hotspots. Stay tuned.
