OUR CODE OF CONDUCT
- We seek to generate an open, transparent, honest and balanced debate on this site, aimed at helping stakeholders and the general public to better understand the issues surrounding pesticides.
- Both sides should be able to voice their views: in fact we strongly urge all experts from either side of the divide to contribute.
- Opinions expressed should represent a deliberate point of view: they should have been reached in a thoughtful way and be carefully researched.
- Arguments should be fact based: speculation or emotional pleas will not be tolerated.
- Admit and correct mistakes: if something we have posted is proven to be factually incorrect we will admit to it and correct it.
