Abstract/Contents:Presents an editorial by Ken Cousineau, executive director of GreenMaster magazine. Focuses on the eminence of pesticides within professional debate during the 2000s, noting that "the effort has been focused on trying to get the golf course owners to understand the significance of this issue relative to their business operations and to get the club pro [professional] to accept that pesticide use will have a direct impact on the ability of that professional to make a living." Emphasizes the view that the issue of pesticide use "is not a superintendent or golf course management issue, it's not an environmental issue and its [it's] not an activist, public opinion issue, it's a business issue!" States that "the "CGSA [Canadian Golf Superintendents Association] Environment Committee has expanded its quarterly national review of pesticide issues to include any issue that has an environmental impact or basis." Suggests that "each of the components of the golf industry has the network...to be of significant value to the overall industry."
