Dr. Phil Johnson, whose qualifications are in Environmental Health, that is a composite discipline incorporating toxicology, risk analysis, as well as three other components, was invited to last night's Commission Discussion Session. During the 57 minutes Dr. Johnson spent with the commissioners, never once was he flippant, arrogant, or biased. It was refreshing to hear from such a humble and honest person concerning artificial turf.
I am hoping a member of the Lebo Citizens "Audio Team" will send that portion of the podcast to me. Until then, the podcast has been uploaded on to my website here.
The entire podcast from Part 1 of the podcast is available to download below. Dr. Johnson begins at the 00:08:04 mark and ends at the 01:05:00 time stamp.
Please take the time to listen to this portion of the podcast, or watch the video which will be available here later today.
