We applaud the Marin Municipal Water District board for halting its consideration of using glyphosate. It is an excellent application of the Precautionary Principle — ”Better safe than sorry.”

We also thank the MMWD for its prompt response to the Department of Health and Human Services’ admission that we have been over-fluoridating for decades.

On July 27, a local dentist will present the most recent scientific findings that fluoride doesn’t work to prevent cavities and proof it causes health problems. A Sacramento water engineer will discuss the toxicity of the artificial fluoride used in water fluoridation.

Admission is free. The event will be held at 7 p.m. at the Sunrise Center, 645 Tamalpais Avenue in Corte Madera.

Come find out how this practice, too, can be ended.
